If this is true then it's a rather huge change that should be announced pretty loudly. After all, if we no longer care about ordering between releases, then we are able to both drop Epoch: tags and remove the extraneous 'c' from the dist tag. (With the slight caveat that rawhide users need to use distro-sync at some point.)
I'd personally love to be able to start resetting Epochs. There's no reason for them to persist beyond a release.
I dunno if I'd be happy with losing `fc`, though. It's grown on me... :P
We still have tons of references to Fedora Extras in our infra too (just look at most of our tracker bug labels!).
I wonder if we now have more people in Fedora that came after the Core/Extras merge than before it...?
