If there was a blocker issue then running it again would be useful (but so far test results are good and I'll know in the next couple week(ish) if there are any red flags. We have some other platforms that come out later in the year with Fedora - around the end of the summer. Last year because of various things it worked out really well that we were ready for testing just as F33 released so we of course used that. I'm focusing right now on improving how we get our releases out much more quickly (now I know where many of the issues lie) so I'm not sure everything will line up quite as well, and that's probably worthy of discussion. Is it better to have the new Fedora out but a later release of a platform? Or earlier HW with older Fedora? Generally the biggest criticisms I get are cost (whether I have no control over) and release dates after Windows (where we have sucked and I have lots of scope for improvement).
