Note that we aren't talking about custom repositories or anything like 
that. User switches on fedora-devel repo and runs yum update. Just 
before a new release a new fedora-release gets pushed that turns off the 
devel repo and points to the stable branch.

The rule about not changing user configuration is all about preventing 
surprises to end users. I would argue that not doing what I just 
described is much more surprising to many testers.
