Hey Dmitry,

No offence, but I rather against that exception. We have too many
things to do in Mitaka, and moving to CentOS 7.2 means

* extra effort from core team
* extra effort from qa team

Moreover, it might block development by introducing unpredictable
regressions. Remember 8.0? So I think it'd be better to reduce risk of
regressions that affects so many developers by postponing CentOS 7.2
till Fuel 10.

Thanks,
Igor
