So what would you have done? Shipped the media with know installation problems? Please.
PS. So far, I have upgraded one of my systems to F-13 (a VM to be precise, located on another continent). This was the smoothest upgrade of Fedora ever. Zero issues. And, kudos to everyone that contributed to new Evolution - it is by far the best release of it - ever. IMAPX rocks, Exchange support over OWA is also working better.

Project slips happen. I'd very much prefer to see working code late than broken code early, for sufficient values of broken. Looks like the slip is brief to boot (to date).
Given my usual distro of choice (Debian) is notorious for late releases, and I'm dealing with a nontrivial value of broken on Ubuntu 9.04 -> 10.04 upgrade (keyboard/mouse frozen in X), I'm familiar with several sides of this debate.
Regards Exchange / OWA, I was looking into this recently and it appears that Mail.app (Mac) offers Exchange connectivity through <a href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb204119.aspx">Exchange Web Services</a>, rather than kluging through OWA. But of course, all of Exchange is a kluge (I'm currently trying to clear some 11k bogus mail dupes from my mutt/IMAP connection). $WORK is headed to GMail (and a much cleaner IMAP/POP interface) Real Soon Now, and I can hardly wait.

Yeah, from what I know you need to have Exchange 2010 for that to work. Most folks are still on 2003 or 2007, I think. At least where I connect is.
BTW, Evo also has MAPI support.
