That's not what Ralf is saying. RH is upstream for some packages or 
involved especially in upstream (for example, NetworkManager, hal, 
consolekit, gdm, many gnome components...), and in that case it is 
not rare that the corresponding packages end up in fedora releases
although there are features that were present in previous components 
that are not already ready, or the applications are not that well 
tested as shown in rawhide testing.
