Realistically I can't see making an F13 target for this. It wouldn't be testable by alpha, and changing the spins to use lzma after that seems like a bad idea. I'll wait another week before officially changing the feture page to target f14. But unless the squashfs / lzma library compatibility is fixed by next week, I don't think it is worth asking for feature approval with an f13 target.
I will continue to work on getting squashfs-tools to support lzma in rawhide and track the lmza/squashfs kernel packages (currently in linux-next for 2.6.34) and maybe ask for a backport to 2.6.33 in Fedora if it will help with testing.
I'll do some testing using a private copy of livecd-tools during the f13 development period but won't try to get changes into f13. (Assuming the likely event of the proposed feature being postponed to f14.)
