While HighLevelStorage is not scheduled to be a feature of Fedora 3.4, it may be developed concurrently or slightly after the 3.4 release date. As many of the prerequisites for drop-in replacement of DOManager are general improvements to the Fedora code base that are not storage-specific, there is distinct appeal to incorporating these basic improvements into the core in time for Fedora 3.4. With these prerequisites in place, work on HighLevelStorage may proceed entirely as an add-on/replacement module, hopefully without further changes to the core. Combined with Fedora's ehnanced modular architecture, it would potentially allow HighLevelStorage to be distributed as an add-on bundle to Fedora 3.4 for evaluation or testing before it becomes a core feature.
