Please read again what I've said, I have no issue to backport kodi 17

There is nothing wrong against updating f24 kodi 16 to 17 18 or
whatever. But having the repo and upgrade path broken for 23-->24 user
migration is more a problem. This is a rel-eng concern.

It should be the package maintainers discretion as to if a version is stable enough or not - not by only reading the words "alpha" or "beta" and saying "No, we cannot have this version in our repos." I have found that Kodi alpha/beta releases are stable enough to be consumed by everyone, but I will only issue an update after I have tested it myself.

Reading both of these emails, I think there may be a miscommunication as to whether or not "alpha" and "stable" are referring to the Fedora 24 release or the Kodi release?

(I may be wrong, though, sorry for butting into this if so).
