Thank you for bringing this up... I re-read the Wiki including the Factory2
link and I'm still confused. I like the idea at a high level but I still
don't understand how to use it.

One example is that I maintain the package OpenImageIO which has a very
disciplined upstream that's careful about not making API/ABI breaking
changes within a minor release. I would like to get branches for each minor
release that's currently supported, 1.8 for rawhide through F28, 1.8 for
F27 and 1.5 for EPEL.

Like I said, at a high level it makes since, but I still don't understand
exactly how to do it or if the process/tools are mature enough to actually
use yet.

Thanks,
Richard
