The deadline is for FESCo to review it by, so yes you're a little late.
However, you can still do the work and get it into F16. The only
thing you won't get is some possible marketing as a feature. You can
still get it mentioned in the release notes though.
That's fine. This feature is not introducing any new functinality as
such. This is old kdump feature. Just that we are changing the way
we generate the initrd/initramfs for kdump kenrel. Thought it is a
better idea to use dracut to generate initramfs for kdump also and
dump "mkdumprd".
