With mock running directly inside Xen VMs as is the case now, then
yes. But with mock running inside a tiny VM which is just launched
for the purpose of the build, you shouldn't need extra build farms.
and second, fedora N-1 is still a moving target for much of the
life of fedora N.
Well, this gets back to the updates policy :-)
The issue is what kernel does Fedora N-1 have, and that should
hopefully be a bit more stable.
