If by that, you mean that the decision is to stick with 0.94 without much 
discussion (that I've seen or heard) and despite it's obvious 
shortcomings... that's a shame.  Heading down this path will also lead to 
lots of, IMO, uncessessary Epoch inflation.  One example:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=105746
I'm sure if nothing is done, many more will follow.

I don't know about you Axel, but until I see a better alternative, I'll 
personally be inflating Fedora X.Y to rh(X+10)Y in the release tag of 
packages I maintain.  The only other alternative is to simply increment 
Epoch for everything, which is yucky, yucky.
