so this means, from OLPC's standpoint, that until F11 is
available and useful on an XO, no new or revised packages
will be available to XO owners.  is that right?

(i'm not disagreeing or complaining about the fedora policy --
i'm just thinking that since there was no F10, and F11 doesn't
yet run fully, the XO is further behind than it otherwise might
be.)
