Another question, when we get to Fedora Server 1.0 where are we going to
source packages from ?

The Fedora 21 git branch, the 23 one ? A mix of the three ? What about
build dependencies ? It can get hard quickly to try to mix and match
packages from different releases, OTOH using always the latest one (F23
at release) kind of defeats stabilization unless you keep some set of
package and the base on a leash for 18 mo.

Simo.
