It is good to see the Fedora project continuing to work toward reproducible builds. It's long been my opinion (or experience) that RPMs as a format and the packaging practices of RPM distros are preferable to what Debian offers overall, but there's no denying that Debian's early commitment to reproducibility was prescient, and Fedora has had to catch up in that respect.
