I fully agree. The effort it takes too identify fixes is too large. 
Also, upstream will not be as amenable in helping us diagnose bugs when 
we are so behind.

I know upstream is moving really fast these days, but I thinbk any risk 
is alleviated by Rex's backport - we can safely identify any 
showstoppers within a fedora release cycle.

1.1 for F17 is way to far behind IMHO given that upstream is now at 3.0.
