If Fedora is getting cold feet at the last minute the best solution would be to package ESR separately and make it available for people that don't really want to be "First". It's probable Mozilla will use the next ESR branching for similar invasive changes anyway now it's been set up.

And yes downgrading from current to ESR is going to cause breakage, but it's a bit late to change gears without breakage one way or another. Consistent breakage with upstream is way better than Fedora-specific breakage

This thread has changed from my original intent. The reported issue was using the updates-testing process as a vehicle for testing software not intended to be pushed to stable. I opened a FESCo ticket on the issue here: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1782

Adam has opened a FESCo ticket on a separate topic, regarding delaying the release of Fx 57 in Fedora. That ticket is here: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/1783

Let''s limit this thread to the topic of updates-testing.

If people want to discuss the rationale and impact of delaying Fx 57 in Fedora, please open another topic.

Not trying to be argumentative, but at least for me multiple topics in the same thread cause a loss of focus on the reported issue.
