So, sigh, we're apparently getting flavor network install images again 
for F22, along with a generic network install image. So let me refine 
this *again*:

Alpha: "When installing with a release-blocking dedicated installer 
image, the installer must be able to install the default package set." 
(no change)

Beta 1: "When installing with a dedicated installer image for a 
specific Fedora flavor, the default package set must be the correct 
set for that flavor."

Beta 2: "When installing with the generic network install image, 
selecting a package set other than the default must work."

Final: "When installing with the generic network install image with no 
update repositories enabled, the installer must be able to install 
each of the release-blocking desktops, as well as the minimal package 
set."

that commits us to a moderate amount of testing, and if we're worried 
about that we could for e.g. consider limiting the 'guarantee' for the 
generic netinst image to just minimal.

Thoughts? Hope I don't have to revise this any further :)

(note: the flavor netinsts may offer package set selection and be able 
to install other package sets - in fact, they probably will - but the 
idea is we only "support" them for installing their 'own' package sets.)
