IMO, we will not be able to avoid to have a management decision on how
to proceed with JBJ's rpm5.

AFAICT, Fedora leadership clearly has set up a clear decision not to
switch to rpm5 but to continue with rpm.org.

=> IMO, there should not be any room for rpm5, may-be except as an
optional add-on package.
