Possibly - but without the support from at least some of the Fedora

aware of much support for this ..
This can of course be because these key folk, after careful
consideration, do not see it as a viable choice to make for Fedora
and/or ultimately its impact on RHEL.
They are, after all, key players for good reason(s) ... I cannot
imagine they are not familiar with the pros/cons of such an approach.
The benefits/drawbacks of a rolling release are rather well known
these days (notwithstanding those that somehow still believe rawhide
is
a rolling release .. :-) )...
Given that, do folks still believe it could be worthwhile for the
rolling-releasers to build a case in a wiki somewhere?
Gene, forgive me while I go off on a slight tangent forking the thread.
I do not thing it is worthwhile for them to do so. There may already be a document
somewhere on the wiki on this topic. It will never be found because since the day
mediawiki was rolled out there has not been a usable search. I would think that taking a
look at existing infrastructure tickets such as the one for getting a usable search for
the wiki would be time better spent than writing more pages for the black hole that the
wiki has become or dreaming about something that has been shot down repeatedly.
