Yeah...I know, but it will break my habit of doing and auto upgrade almost 
immedietely. My big concern with this is that I was always very confident that 
doing a upgrade between versions would work. Because things change so very 
rapidly in the Fedora world I would be worried about an on the spot upgrade 
even between Fedora 21 to 22 in 6 months time let alone 21 to 23.

As a suggestion only because I know that resources are limited and really I am 
not trying to be a wiseguy. But if it was possible, maybe you guys should 
think of a plan to get a "Longer Term" release with something like a year or 2 
year release cycle for each version with the same current EOL policy of Fedora 
/ KDE and "Bleeding Edge" but "stable" release with the current release 
schedule.

I know that this is asking a lot... its just an idea. :)
