Yes, the same way that Fedora 19 and Fedora 20 have different
repositories. It's nothing new.
The difference is that now you either loose access to the other products
components or you need to install old packages.
Ie in Fedora Server 1.0 you will have to install packages built for
Fedora 21, however if the product that produces them stays on a short
release cycle, by the time we go 1.0 there not even security updates
anymore for them. So what do we do ? We force other products to do
security updates for 24 months ?
Simo.
