Yes, updates filed now are intended to go into F43-is-rawhide, yes, but not *only* into F43-is-branched. > Sure, the packages would also have to be built for rawhide after branch, > but while that might not be top of mind for packagers, but is there > really anything that would prevent that? Not preventing, no, but it means that "branched" has less up-to-date content than rawhide for no good reason, and it requires manual intervention to fix. With how many packagers ignore bodhi after hitting the "submit" button on their updates, that manual intervention is just unlikely to happen in many cases.
