IF 2.0 were pushed to Rawhide, and IF 2.0 didn't make final before the freeze for FC4, then it would probably get pulled before FC4 went live and the package reverted to 1.1.4.
Wouldn't it be better to have it in rawhide, ship whatever nearly-there 2.0ish release at the freeze date, with an update to be released as soon as it goes final? Upgrading form 1.1.4 to 2.0 within a release might be a bit too much...
I like this option. As someone who installs the beta of OOo-2.x I would much prefer to see OOo-2.x in FC4 (because it's better) than OOo.1-x.
As I see it, given that FC is a download only distro, I'm all for the occasional inclusion of pre-release software. If you want totally solid, you shouldn't be using FC (IMHO).
