Is the intention then that users will be able to install modules on their
system and have things work within the Fedora 26 timeframe, or would that
not be possible until Fedora 27, assuming nothing slips? It seems like that
would require at least one other change proposal (probably a system-wide
one).

I ask as someone who's aware that Modularity is being worked on but not too
clear on what it's actually going to wind up looking like and how my system
/ our package collection is going to change as a result. By which I mean, I
understand the goal and basic concept (split packages into higher level
units), but I'm iffy on the implementation details, and if we're at the
point where things are going to start getting deployed in upcoming releases
I'd like to read more about them.

A lot of the wiki pages on modularity [1] seem to be focused on "why is
modularity a good idea" or "how do I contribute to modularity projects",
but neither of these is quite what I'm looking for. Is there a "Fedora
Modularity for current developers" writeup somewhere? (by which I mean
"Fedora developers" in general).
