There's only one sane conclusion to draw from that: There MUST NOT be a 
major rewrite of Anaconda, EVER. That it was allowed to happen for F18 was a 
major mistake.

Anaconda is the least tested component in Fedora (most people test it at 
most once every 6 months) and arguably the most critical (because it is 
required to get Fedora up and running at all). The less it changes, the 
better!
