I don't believe that Redhat will be putting any testing and quality control into this new Fedora version. They are turning this new release over to the open source community and moving their resources to their paying customers. Oh, they'll still sponsor and support it but it won't be a commerical level product. You will receive the same form and function but not anywhere near the same reliability of previous releases. This is why they keep describing it as a version for the enthusiast and hobbyist. If you want reliability and stability then you'll have to pay for it. If you want the "latest and greatest" but are willing to tolerate a few warts then you can use the free version. -- Gerry "The lyfe so short, the craft so long to learne" Chaucer -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
