I would be happy to have a single finger point me to the discussion that
took place when that decision was made.
The main problem I have is that we weren't even included in the
discussion so we could not even properly prepare for it to be officially
supported.
Today it matters less since we are a bit better prepare I just hope that
they have gather some input from the front line ( #fedora ) on how the
upgrade process has been turning out for people, What have been the
major issue people have had etc. to take into account when developing
the new upgrade process that is as you have pointed extremely vague and
to be honest I'm a bit vary of given Anconda's rough start this
development cycle to me this news is coming as a bit of surprise.
