I use EFL on RHEL5, and I know lots of other people smart enough to know that Fedora is not a stable or reliable platform, and if you want your desktop to work the same way your servers do, that means RHEL on the desktop. And it works quite well there. So yes, people use E and the EFL in exactly that setup. But in terms of sheer marketing, if EFL won't build on the most popular Linux platform in the US, if not the world, that doesn't make RHEL look old. It makes E look broken. Period. And that's bad for us. Michael -- Michael Jennings (a.k.a.
