Spacewalk is upstream to RHN Satellite. It is the same as Fedora is 
upstream for Red Hat Enteprise Linux.
So we in some moment decide that some snapshot of Spacewalk will be base 
of RHN Satellite. We do a lot of testing, fixing, stabilizing and in the 
meantime Spacewalk continue in its own development.

Once released, we support it, provide training, certifications and fix 
the bugs which RHN Satellite customers reports.
No one cares about this in Spacewalk.
