I'm not sure. Honestly, I'd rather take a snapshot of git master
that's going to be Koji 1.17 in Python 3 form for F30+ so that we can
iterate and get to the final release.

None of the Koji components are shipped on any of the media, it's only
accessed through the repositories, so there's a very low risk there.

Moreover, releng redeploys post-GA for prod, so that gives us a long
window to suss out issues. We could even have staging upgraded early
to "kick the tires" if need be.

The worst thing that could happen if 1.17.0 goes out and there's a
problem is that 1.17.1 has to be issued. In the grand scheme of
things, that's really not that bad.
