They are also NOT paid to only work on this, but mainly to help volunteers cover parts that volunteers run out of time to do. If there are no volunteers then those people paid are filling out many other jobs. In the many places Fedora has volunteers, the months of November, December, January, February are usually a lot of family time activities with various New Year and Soltice and other regional holidays.

It instead demotivates the people working on it (whther they are a volunteer or a paid person) and makes them less inclined to a) give an update or b) actually finish the project.

This is going to be a tricky problem and there will be multiple imports and blow away and redeploy because very few Databases travel well without some manual intervention. Once those those tricks are figured out..

As Stephen and Matthias said. I'm not even in CPE, I'm giving a hand on
the packaging front to unblock, and while I'm paid by $dayjob to make
improvements to our Linux upstreams this is not really a top priority
either.

As for the other post that I'm not even going to bother replying
separately (please don't spam the list like that) - this doesn't really
feel like a Fedora Change, although it could be one. The servers that
host the mailing lists run RHEL, and I'm hoping to get the dependencies
all branched and built before RHEL 9 gets officially released.

This, 100%.
