Correct. Federation was discussed as being on the FAS3 roadmap. The
largest win I see from FAS is a common toolset with fedora/epel which
would (in theory) enable simpler contribution sharing.


With IPA, the largest win is that it's a part of the base distribution,
and quite well documented. There are no real "extras" required to make
it go.

Agreed. I don't really care which one we go with, so long as it does
what we need.
