It appears to me that anaconda is months away from being shippable.
It's still got major features that are incomplete (one example above,
but there are more), and I don't seem to be able to do anything at all
with it without hitting serious bugs.
How is it that we're even considering shipping this version for F18?
For any other package, we'd be telling the maintainer to hold off
till F19. The rest of us don't get to be doing major feature
development post-beta-freeze.
I'd recommend asking dcantrell, as he has some good points on this
topic. I broadly agree with him that it might well be more or less
impossible to smoothly handle a major rewrite of anaconda in our current
development process. CCing to make sure he sees this.
