In Fedora 27 we released https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/27/WorkstationOstree/... Now that https://pagure.io/atomic-wg/issue/373 is fixed, the first update is available, i.e. you can `rpm-ostree upgrade`.

Having an updated ostree commit stream in sync with the bodhi batches should help with synchronization issues.
There's a bit more information about the project at https://pagure.io/workstation-ostree-config
I and several other people use it as a "daily driver"; as the page says I think the project is useful for interested technical users, but there's a whole lot more to do; I just noticed the rpm-ostree plugin for gnome-software isn't enabled, going to fix that. I'd also really like to plumb through automatic updates by default.
A big picture question is how much we stay in sync with Workstation as it exists today; for example I find it confusing to have applications both via rpm and flatpak, and I think it'd make sense to thin things down more. At least drop gnome-boxes by default, and potentially libvirt too.
In this path we'd really be expecting most users to do package layering for things like that; personally I use `vagrant-libvirt` a lot for example. But OTOH there's already PRs like: https://pagure.io/workstation-ostree-config/pull-request/47 which add things.
