Well, I think right now I'd have the final say, but I do differ to 
warren on a lot of issues.  I'd have to dig up some old email, but 
there were some locking bugs and upgrade version issues that we wanted 
to solve with a single rpm version set across all the supported Legacy 
distros.  Fedora.us has done a lot of research on it so I've been told, 
and they haven't found any reason to not fix these nasty bugs.

So I'm going to be a bit totalitarian for a moment, and unless somebody 
can show me a really good reason to _not_ fix RPM across these release, 
then rpm will be upgraded.

Note, this is not an upgrade just to upgrade, we're fixing bugs here.
