Yes, that's the plan. There are some differences but they are all well documented.
Is the plan to actually rename dnf to yum at that point? If it is truly a drop-in replacement, that seems like the less disruptive approach for users (and scripts) everywhere.
Additionally, in remembrance of Seth Vidal, I would hate to see Fedora lose 'yum'. Even if Seth would probably find that silly, it's important to me.
I agree with this sentiment. (Btw, I have no idea what all this hullaballoo about yum is about. It is sometimes slow, but that is why I have multiple tabs/windows -- carry on while it loads if needed. Of course, different people have different comfort levels.)
