It's a compromise.  It's not perfect, but it makes forward progress
without annoying too many people.  Like I said, we can work on fixing it
better early in the F8 cycle this time, rather than so late in the F7
cycle.

And, don't say "Red Hat" - that's pointless, because there's no personal
responsibility when you blame an entire company.  If you want to point
fingers, blame me, because it was my call.
