Given that rawhide has branched now for f15, I don't see why there should
need to be a delay. f14 will have whatever was in rawhide before the
branching took place, so it's not really an issue.

for a while and update that to 2.8 to see what breaks and what
doesn't. Once f14 is out and settled, if there is nothing big and nasty,
move 2.8 to f14. I'd give it a month post f14
