Not quite. The Fedora update cycle is "4-6 months" with update lifetime "2-3 months after next release" versus "12-18 months" and "At least 5 years" for RHEL according to http://fedora.redhat.com/about/rhel.html. This is MUCH more dynamic than any past Red Hat release/update schedule, and unlike RH-9 or RHm.n you do not have any option to purchase Red Hat support. WBEL, Tao, or other RHEL-derived community-supported distros have the same short-coming in support, but at least will be tracking a more stable/supported base. Phil Schaffner
