I'm simply responding to Tim's comment with my take on the facts as they are. I don't expect them to change and I'm certainly not in a position to change them myself, but I use Fedora anyway as it's by far the best distro out there for what I want. The perennial "if you don't like it then fix the problem yourself or just shut up" is what gets very old, as do witty paraphrases such as "you can always return it for a full refund". So only seasoned developers get to have an opinion and the rest of us can just take what we get and be thankful? I don't think so. poc -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
