This is a great change that actually allows other teams that heavily relies on Fedoras to put their software "on hold" for two Fedora releases.
Fedora is really a fast moving target and the same for Ruby. Catching up costs lot of effort. This gives us usually "one extra" release to put things on hold when huge changes are in the Fedora/Ruby world. Which is - ehm - every single release? :-) Big up for this change.
