Sorry for the delay in my reply here. ;( 

Some questions: 

> * Release engineering: [https://pagure.io/releng/issues #Releng issue number]

no releng ticket? :( 

releng depends on dnf4 for a LOT of scripts. 
We will need a lot of help moving those to dnf5 I am sure. 
A porting guide for the python bindings would be welcome.

A document like the yum2dnf man page with every single change would be
welcome. Also it would be nice if dnf5 accepted things and just warned
on them... ie '--refresh' or 'list' (use repoquery I guess)...

> == Dependencies ==

I see a big one missing: koji

We also have some applications that might use dnf python bindings
(bodhi, packages, etc)

IMHO, I think it would be nice to get dnf5 reviewed and landed in Fedora
as soon as you can, because then you would have a place for people to
file bugs and iterate on things, but of course thats up to you.
