I cannot speak for the entirety of the Server Working Group, but I've
been advocating for Fedora Server to eventually move to a different
major release cadence (doing minor releases aligned with the Fedora base
though).[1]

That being said, the Server WG agreed unanimously that this was not
going to be a near-term goal. I suspect at that point we will end up
having to re-brand Server in some way (possibly by re-starting the
numbering at 1)
