Fedora needs to be free to innovate, and that means we need to be free
to introduce substantial changes between our releases, so no, this
policy does not apply to changes between say F-13 and F-14, only to
changes /to/ F-13 once it has been released.
But this is real issue - very conservative release updates with very
aggressive upgrades every 6 months, forcing users to upgrade every (and only)
1 year. You can't decouple updates/upgrades. That's why I'd like to see
"slowing down" approach of updates.
