I may just be reposting what everyone remembers already but Alex Perez 
had approached the Fedora maintainers and apparently it is very hard 
to get a large new package into the core distribution right now.  
However, that is not to say that we (GNUstep) could not produce and 
maintain Fedora packages outside the core that are the latest release 
and "official" from a GNUstep perspective.
