To necromance this old thread, I wanted to give a heads up that we're about to 
get a cool feature in Bodhi in response to this thread:

https://github.com/fedora-infra/bodhi/pull/1678

With that pull request, there will be a new request state called "batched". 
When non-priority[0] updates reach the karma threshold, they will go into 
request:batched instead of request:stable (they will remain status:testing). 
Once a week, a cron script will look for all updates in the batched state and 
will switch them all the request:stable. Then they will continue on as they do 
today. This should help us to reduce the daily churn of Fedora updates for 
end-users to only be updates they truly need. It may also make the masher be a 
little faster on 6 days of the week (and slower on one ☺).

There will still be a little more polish work to do after that pull request is 
merged. For example, for non-autokarma updates we want to change the "push to 
stable" button to be "push to batched".


[0] The code considers two things to determine whether the update is priority 
or not: security updates are high prioritity, and urgent updates are considered 
high priority. All other updates are considered "normal" and will go through 
the new batched workflow.
