Can we get a word from Jesse on this? For context, Jesse, this is my
point that things like ABRT are looking for "15" as the version of
Fedora to file bugs against, based on the release info. But 15 is
rawhide until it branches. So some kind of change is required. Either
the release package is changed, things like ABRT are, or we decide stuff
present pre-branch counts enough toward the final and make the BZ "15".

Jon.
