You have just a day before the docs are frozen.
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/Schedule. I am editing the
release notes right now so if anyone has suggestions for the wording let
me know. My proposal for the future release is essentially the same as
the one now preferably early during the devel cycle and no later than
the feature freeze

I wanted FESCo to decide on the issue on the whole rather than just for
this release as the last time I requested it was before the test 4
release. That was ignored somehow it a bit too late to do rebuilds.
So let me place a request now for FESCo to consider a general approach
on dealing with dist tags early during Fedora 8 development. Also we
might have delta rpms by default then so the argument of lesser churn of
packages becomes weak.
