Clarify for me one thing. Assuming you slip relative to x86 release
date and you need to use f9-updates packages... what are we doing with
respect to ensuring source distribution?  Will you be rolling srpm
isos that match the binary isos?  We don't make any effort to keep
srpms nor binaries for updates  available for the full lifetime of a
release.  So i just want to make sure we know what we are doing for
secondary arches to meet source distribution requirements.
