I think you should be just a tad bit careful with your wording.  One has to
remember that "The Fedora Project is a collection of projects sponsored by
Red Hat...developed as a partnership between the open source community and
Red Hat engineers".  So, it is a bit unfair to assume that Red Hat is
responsible for all the testing.  We, the community, are also responsible
for testing.

So, let's not sit around pointing fingers.  Let's report problems and work
together to have them resolved.  Let us also be thankful that we don't have
to spend $$ (I think it was last quoted at $90) per incident report to some
OS vendors.  :-)
