It depends on what is meant by "image". png and jpeg have vastly
different compression characteristics. Using jpeg where appropriate can
save someone on dialup a tremendous amount of time. However, many of
the images we create as SVG are going to be the kind that store well as
png...
Since it looks like both jpeg and png are free formats, I'd like to
avoid a "only pngs allowed here" policy. Both png and jpg have their
place.

We're not saying we will force someone to use png format only.
However we'll *encourage* to use patent-free png format in Fedora Project.
