He could if he has spare hardware laying around. Or if he is running it 
virtulized you could clone the vm easily and test it on a virtual 
network not connected to the rest.

But if you read Rashard's post correctly, he is afraid of yum 
automatically updating freeIPA and breaking it.

@ Rashard

You should not be letting yum update automatically but use Katello, Red 
Hat Network Satellite or Spacewalk to install updates.

Still I would like to know the same. Some other projects use version 
dependant repo's so you can choose to switch by changing repo, others 
put the version number in the package name.
