Well,
the reason why it was scheduled so early (and already postponed by two
weeks) are other holidays - we have to avoid hitting December, when
everyone is on vacations :(. One week = Thanksgivings, two weeks =
Christmas...
Well, ... many people are on vacation > 2 weeks around this time of
year
- probably most them in August ;)
... as I feel, this time, the changes introduced into Fedora were too
ambitious with some of the having been introduced too late.
Notably the docdir changes, texinfo-5.x, perl-5.18 and the texlive mess
(interestingly, the impact of the arm having been introduced is
comparatively low)
As a consequence of this, I don't see an alternative to further postponing.
