The very topic is outside of the scope of Fedora Extras, however, no one
is trying to make life harder for anyone upgrading between Fedora and
Enterprise (their life is painful enough).
I don't see why we should add cruft to our release tags to help people
shoot their own feet either. I'm not going to start flamewar over this -
there are worse things in life that RPMforge disttags :) but I simply
don't see no value added whatsoever by trying to create an upgrade path
for *extras* when one doesn't exist for the actual products.
