Fedora 18 is basically closed for new feature work, and instead the
focus needs to be on integration of the existing feature set and
bugfixes. But as you state there is a large amount of time before F18
releases, which means new feature work would have to stall out for
months. Instead, new feature work can begin for F19 and get ahead of
the game. That's why F18 and F19 are divergent. That's why we went
from a single line of development to two.
But we are not doing two lines of development in systemd or GNOME or
other upstream projects. So, why again should we build the same stuff
twice ? I personally just don't have the time.
