There is no Fedora 20 rawhide.

I don't want to maintain it, and I want to put the pressure on the
few holdouts to finally port things over.

Yes, of course. We are inherently evil people, who just hate other
people. We have no interest in making Fedora better, and are exclusively
lead by our deepest interest to make everybody's lifes as miserable as
we can.

Please go back to mail #1 of this thread, thank you.

What do other distros have to do with this? It's *my* intention to get rid
of CK, I am upstream of it, and downstream too.

I will retire this next week, unless somebody steps up to take it over
pretty soon who really thinks his time is better spent on CK rather then
just fixing the remaining packages which use it (and as mentioned,
exorcising CK from packages is rather simple usually, as in most cases
you will just delete code, not add new code).
