That's unfortunate, but if this is an issue going forward, I will try
to address it from the Red Hat side. That being said, let's try to
keep this discussion (for now) on "what we want to see" and hold "what
we will actually do" until later. Remember that our goal here is not
to define Fedora 21 alone. We really want to be setting the tone for
the future of Fedora Server. If that means setting lofty goals that
take several releases to hit... that's why I suggested the preview and
stable servers.
