Getting rid of all the NFSv3 junk by default I think is valid.
This would mean to lock out many professional use-cases and restrict Fedora-deployment to amateurish use-cases.
Right, amateurish cases like pNFS and something that's actually scalable.
The NFSv3 stuff isn't maintained anymore anyway. So it should just go away.
Says who? Isn't maintained as part of the Linux kernel or isn't maintained as part of RH-based distros?
As long as there exist nfs-servers, which do not support nfs > 3, Linux will have to continue supporting nfsv3. And if RH/Fedora doesn't want to loose users, they also will have to continue supporting it.
