6 will be the default and 7 will be optional in F16. In F17, 7 will be default and 6 will be optional. The original intent was to make 7 the default in F16, but we had to abandon that approach after discovering multiple package build failures with 7. Since building some packages with 7 and some with 6 would break compatibility, we decided to stay with 6 as default.
