Hi,

So weeks keep going by here.  I have intense pressure from many people
to actually get content up to replace the completely ancient Fedora 20
based content we originally put up on projectatomic.io.

I keep telling people "Oh don't use that", we're going to have Fedora
21...and I was really hoping to have a truly final location for the
ostree repo where they would actually receive updates.

But the problem is unless this appears soon, we have yet unfinished work
to figure out how to actually consume it.  We don't know if the metalink
code will work.

So an alternative plan is to make Atomic just part of "alt" - not a
Fedora product.  Take it off the F21 download page and schedule.  Give
it its own landing page.  Mark it as beta.  Downloads just come from
alt.fp.org, there's no mirrorlist or metalink.

Composes are managed by atomic01.qa.fp.org, and done regularly, as they
are today.

Maybe we return to it for Fedora 22?

Yet more alternatives:
  - Figure out how to get more people involved in the rel-eng code
  - Something else?
