Hi All; I don't often chime in to these rants however here's my 2 cents: As a long time user of Fedora I've seen my share of issues, however as Fedora users we need to recognize that Fedora lives somewhere between latest and greatest stable and cutting/bleeding edge - and we're effectively the test bed. I am seriously grateful for the entire pool of developers, package maintainers and other folks who give of their time and talents so I can run a distro with the latest sweet developments in the Linux world and so I never ever ever have to consider running MS windows again. If you want to stand back and criticize I suggest the following as the only viable actions: 1) Get involved and offer your time/talents to the project (or a related project) to ensure that Fedora more closely meets your expectations 2) go find another distro that is more in line with your expectations say a longer term support model like ubuntu or CentOS - Fedora is not for everyone which is why you'll find > 1,000 different distros on sites like distrowatch.com -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
