What you are looking for, and many here lately are missing, is a personal 'blog'. Some that post here have this *help me with a Fedora problem* list confused with a 'rant and rave' personal blog. Or general chat list. Which it is not. > I know one can file bug reports and watch bug reports, but > I'm not sure if there is a way to tell how happy people are > with something.

It has been my experience here that few, very few, people write in and say that 'everything is beautiful. Everything works out-of-the-box. All is wonderful. :-) After all it is a help list not a praise list. Some people, the majority, write here because something just does not work correctly for them. Or just how they think it should work. Many here are knowledgeable and try to help. Some people, a vocal minority, write here to 'rant and rave'. To spout off about how bad Fedora is. Or how the way Fedora is is bad because <their_reason_goes_here>. I tolerate those posts for two, sometimes three, posts then I have a special place to store their posts from then on. It's name is /null/void. :-) > On a related topic, is there a way to find per component > statistics on the percentage of bug reports that are > fixed before the next release? This someone else will have to comment on. Adam might know. -- David
