The problem is more complicated unfortunately: I want to use z3c.rml which 
needs zope.schema, zope.interface and other packages. Fedora currently 
ships the old zope.interface (3.0) which seems to be too old for 
zope.schema 3.4.

I built RPM packages for myself but thought about submitting these to 
Fedora. Therefore I have an undefined set of applications possible using 
zope.interface 3.0 (and relying on this version). Even if my custom 
application has a very good unit test coverage, this does not help the 
Fedora Project.

On the other hand if there was a commitment to a stable (downwards 
compatible) API in 3.x, I think it would be much easier to get my RPMs into 
Fedora.
