I don't see how this handles multiple Fedora releases.

This works great if you only consider jpackage as one release, and Current 
Fedora as one release.  However we DO have to consider:

jpackage--
          |
           - Fedora Current
          |
           - Fedora (Current - 1)
          |
           - Fedora (Current - 2)

Obviously one can't use the same NVR on all three Fedora lines, so something 
has to be used to differentiate them, and allow for rebuilding something on 
Current - 1 that isn't built on Fedora Current.  (could be something as silly 
as a buildsystem bug that didn't produce all the packages.  Have to bump the 
nvr to build again)
