so this policy has to be adopted to the real life damned

you can i imagine you upgrade a virtual production server with
Preupgrade/Anaconda? this is only a bad joke while if Fedora
put more care in yum-upgrade and supports it this does well
while services are up

i ahve done UNDRETS of dist-upgrades with yum while services were
up and most time of prepare this is revert/change fedora mistakes
made all the time

and yes there are servers which can be down the 30 secods of the
reboot as they do also on a normal kernel update

Preupgrade/ANacodna is UNACCETABLE on any important machine because
it is not controllable while yum is if oyu have a clone of your machine
to test and playaround before go to the procution one

these policies should corrected and whoever wrote them should
come back to reality
