And, on a even bigger note, the F27 July-to-October experiment worked reasonably well (with the large remainer of the still-outstanding Modular Server) but I don't think we want to do that again. I'd like to suggest that if the April/May release slips into July, or the October/November release slips into January, we *automatically* skip the next target date for a _longer_ cycle to bring us back to schedule rather than a short one.

I thought it worked quite well. If a release gets delayed to July and we completely skip the October release, so that the next release is in April/May, then we need to be willing to push out major version upgrades to the current stable release, and accept any accompanying breakage. And that really blows up the entire concept of having stable releases. A 10 month release cycle seems like a much bigger change to me than a four month cycle. Fedora can't be a year behind and remain relevant.
