Given that 4.6 is out and current F24 final freeze is not scheduled until
2016-05-31 should not F24 be released with the 4.6 kernel?
I think the original logic is still sound. There have been three
delays for Fedora 24 already, in the original schedule today was to be
GA. I don't think it's worth any risk for another slip.
