Plan was to release a good enough F15 but absolutely to do some kind of release (just cap
when we will move on to keep momentum - a couple more weeks and we need to be focused on
rawhide). It's F16 we are wanting to skip in order to focus on rawhide by the new
year.

No one's delaying, but there is a sequence to this that we shouldn't
short-circuit:
* Sync up the armv5tel and armv7hl pre-koji package sets <= We are here
* Do final F15 build in Koji
It was my understanding from dgilmore's proposal above that we were
going to skip F-15 and just go straight to F-17. Ultimately whether we
do a final F-15 or F-17 it doesn't really matter, the current build
tool chain for them both is derived from gcc 4.6.1
* Release F15 (& start F15-updates builds)
* Finalize koji changes for rawhide (rpm, rpmbuild, yum, koji, armv7hl
rootfs)
* Do necessary prebuilds for rawhide (build-previous or other)
* Build for rawhide, shadow PA as closely as possible
* Branch F17 when PA does
At the end of this process we'll be building for at least three releases
(F15updates, F17, rawhide) across two archs - 6 builds total.
Why? I thought the above process was with the idea of just using the
F-15 work that was done as a base to go straight to F-17 and forget
the rest. Clearly people need to start documenting the exact process
for all to see.
