Much of the concern that has been expressed involves the stability of

Fedora releases. With Redhat branded releases we were assured that they

It is my impression that this formal process will not apply to the Fedora
Project. While Redhat personnel will supervise the Fedora testing it will
be much less disciplined and thorough than what we're used to.
The intent is not to be sloppy, deliberately break things, or add wildly
unusable cvs snapshots, no. I plan to run Fedora on my workstation for
example and I will get grumpy if it doesn't work. ;-)
The intent _is_ to add the latest released versions of packages, though,
to have feature updates rather than bugfixes-only, and to have frequent
releases.
The exact policies and processes aren't really decided, they will be
discussed a good bit on the mailing lists I expect.
