Even with inheritence, since there have been f20 kernel builds it wouldn't 
apply.

I think having the same style numbering for all of the kernels has some 
visual appeal. It feels odd (to me) looking at both rawhide kernel versions 
and released kernel versions currently. So if it isn't extra work, I 
have a preference for consistant naming.

The other option would be not to use Yxx numbering for development kernels 
and make sure that rawhide and branched get builds at the same time. The 
next git bump will be enough to make the use of 301 for f19 once 
irrelevant.
