"It would be good to get as many of the tests as we can covered as 
early as possible. testcase-stats is up and running for F22, with 
hourly updates, at https://www.happyassassin.net/testcase_stats/22/ .
The 'significant' (on my rather arbitrary list, so far) package 
changes since 20141208 are: pungi (3.13-1 vs. 3.12-2), pykickstart 
(1.99.65-1 vs. 1.99.64-1), lorax (22.1-1 vs. 22.0-1). anaconda and 
python-blivet have not changed.

If you don’t have or don’t use Wi-Fi on your system, you don’t need to install stuff for it and you can save some disk space and RAM. If you suddenly find yourself without Wi-Fi, find a wired network connection and:"

dnf install NetworkManager-wifi
systemctl restart NetworkManager

"RPM Fusion provides software that the Fedora Project or Red Hat doesn't want to ship."

   and requires ​hybrid ISOs, which Fedora have been producing for a long time.
