Finally, all the packages included in F20 have been imported into
Conary packages.  That took rather longer than I had anticipated.

We ran into several interesting issues along the way that we
have chronicled here.  We have a list of packages that contain
conflicting file contents that we should review after we import
updates to see whether they have been fixed upstream.  I suspect
that Fedora wouldn't want to do bug fix releases just for those
issues, but they might want to fix them for F21.  We just need to
determine whether they have been fixed already before reporting them.

Next steps:
1) Create groups
2) Create new repository f20.flnx.org
3) Promote packages and groups to f20.flnx.org@f:20
   and to f20.flnx.org@f:20-c
4) Start processing updates, building on f20.flnx.org@f:20
5) Modify genmodel to write a model for an F20 system
6) Build an "adoption" tarball and instructions

Brett, in order to make that promote work, I think we might need
to promote packages by source before we promote the group, because
otherwise we'll end up with a huge promote.  It took long enough
to commit just the texlive build with all its subpackages.
I'm guessing that somewhere in mirrorball is code that creates a
map from source components to binary packages.  Am I right?
