I guess this is because this time you're actually trying the new major
version early. :-)
Last time you were indeed looking forward to Fedora 9 and KDE 4:

… but then…

Trying the new version before upgrading to it is a good thing, and there's
nothing preventing you from skipping a release. That's why Fedora n only
reaches its end of life (EOL) after the Fedora n+2 release.
Yeah...I know, but it will break my habit of doing and auto upgrade almost
immedietely. My big concern with this is that I was always very confident that
doing a upgrade between versions would work. Because things change so very
rapidly in the Fedora world I would be worried about an on the spot upgrade
even between Fedora 21 to 22 in 6 months time let alone 21 to 23.
As a suggestion only because I know that resources are limited and really I am
not trying to be a wiseguy. But if it was possible, maybe you guys should
think of a plan to get a "Longer Term" release with something like a year or 2
year release cycle for each version with the same current EOL policy of Fedora
/ KDE and "Bleeding Edge" but "stable" release with the current
release
schedule.
I know that this is asking a lot... its just an idea. :)
