This is largely directed to the WG, as a request to clarify a part of the workstation product tech spec. It relates to a thread on the anaconda list regarding os-prober, and a thread on this list regarding release criteria, both of which are referenced below.
I am cross posting to the server@ list as well, while they don't have a dual-boot requirement in their spec it stands to reason the ability to dual-boot Fedora Server/CentOS/RHEL version n and n+1 could come in handy when doing migrations while still having a fall back position. Perhaps replies should drop the other cross posting since the requirements for the two products are different? But I leave up to the person replying to decide.
To be honest I do not see any need whatsoever for multibooting in the Server case.
So whatever abilities the Workstation WG want will be sufficient IMO.
I will second this. Dual-booting is not particularly valuable in our case. People doing migrations are generally doing staged upgrades in a testing environment first.
Now, there's certainly an argument to be made for a robust rollback mechanism, but that's a different topic (and one we will probably explore with Project Atomic in Fedora 22).
