Fedora Users — Re: how bleeding edge will the next fedora release be?

I could, until Redhat went and priced themselves out of my range. I could afford a few dollars a year for the privilege of downloading fixes from their servers; I even bought my first couple of distros from them, before I got my broadband service. I have a job and a wife, each of which expects 80% of my time. I spend my days doing software testing and support; when I get home I want to be able to download my email, browse a few web pages, and pay my bills without having to worry about reporting any problems I might encounter. Incidentally, it's the last of the above that insures I'll be using Win<whatever> for quite a while to come. At least until Intuit ports Quicken over, or some bright programmer writes a package that runs on Linux and talks to my bank. Cheers.

My take on it is that FC2 will be as stable as you want it to be. If you 'pay' for the release by testing during the development cycle it will be more stable than if you sit on the sidelines expecting enterprise stability for no cost.
It's funny that you use the term "pay" since many of us would be happy to pay actual money if the terms weren't constantly shifting. I'd gladly pay for a relatively stable for Fedora. But the only way I can pay is by being a beta tester?
