How are you going to deal with the same hypothetical example in F15?
If we assume that FESCO shows superb level of competence in the F15
cycle and bases its decisions on facts not assumptions and fears and
hypothetical examples that might cause us to loose all our users since
we would be shipping systemd without the six month experience on the
field and gnome-shell <insert third ingredient of feature in the mixed
that might bring doom to us all ) at the same time and accepts systemd
as a feature.
Everybody were working hard to achieves this and overcome whatever
obstacle that was in it's path to make this a successful feature and
everybody were doing a dam good job of it. The community was working
like a well greased engine..
The decision to reject this feature certainly was a lesson in killing
momentum which we will never reach again.

Ps.
Yes I'm pissed and I have every right to be I eventually will
get over it and so will you over my rant.
