First, thanks for the detailed plan, I think I got thru it, mostly.

One thing I want to note is that with the high number of packages I maintain, and usual lack of time to go thru rebasing it for each milestone, I would be very glad to see maintainers offloaded of the duty to apply those manual steps, since they all can be automated, assuming that there are no differences in Fedora distgit comparing to delorean.
