I have no idea why I'm jumping in to this, Les, but the real problem
is that you refuse to accept that some people like it this way, and
that if they don't, they have other choices...
There's no problem except the one you continuously create with your
endless pugilism
It seemed somewhat relevant to post a view that I think represents the
99.something% of computer users that don't use fedora (and my own
experience) in the context of a question about a choice between fedora
or something else. Sorry if it upsets the closed minority here, but I
liked the way RH development worked in the old days up through RH 7.3
where there was a continuous transition toward stability within a major
version.
I would certainly find Fedora more useful if it got security fixes for a year
instead of six months. There are times when features in CentOS are not recent
enough, and the next Fedora release is not stable enough. I'm actually impressed
by the fact that FC10 is "non-critical reliable" before the preview is out. I
just worry that the official initial release will be close enough to the first
beta+rawhide to avoid functional differences.
