* Any component which prominently identifies a Fedora release version number or phase (Alpha, Beta, Final) must do so correctly

The first of these might be a bit over-clever - we could just say "must be different from any previous release", but, perhaps over-thinking things, I wondered if maybe at some point in the future we'll want to use a 'retro' wallpaper for some reason, revive the Fedora Core 1 artwork or something. Which, with enough of a time gap, obviously wouldn't create any confusion. So I tried to allow for the possibility.

The second one, I think, frames the confusion problem better: it's not only artwork that can create confusion. The new anaconda UI identifies the Fedora version and phase with a text string - that's not 'artwork', but if it's wrong, it could certainly confuse things. plymouth in text mode also specifies the Fedora release. There are probably others I'm not thinking of right now. I don't see why the 'confusion' criterion shouldn't cover _anything_ that could plausibly cause confusion, there's no reason to restrict it to artwork. The 'prominently' weasel-word gives us an out to avoid slipping the release just because it's wrong in some obscure text file somewhere that no-one ever reads.
I propose we modify the Final criterion a bit, just to update it for the more restricted modern artwork era:
* The proposed final Fedora artwork must be included and enabled by default for all graphical bootloaders and the desktop background. All Fedora artwork must be consistent with the proposed final theme
+1 for the modification.
