By that logic, you'd avoid OpenStack too, since they follow almost
exactly the same schedule and cadence. In general, I've been rather disappointed
about the lack of effort in testing OpenStack on top of Fedora, as
Fedora is the *upstream* of RHEL/CentOS, and there's no good reason
for not doing it.
Being short handed is a good reason, there's a SIG to help fill that gap
partially though.
I would not be surprised if RDO OpenStack is not going to be ready
for
Python 3 because there's no work going on to at least build against
Fedora. And that has nasty trickle-down effects...
Well, actually we do have a trunk builder on Fedora and we regularly fix
build issues. Most libs and clients are already python3 compliant.
