Lets get the facts straight here, shall we? Firstly, lets separate
out a _very_ important distinction.
1. The stuff on my FTP site is _not_ produced by RedHat, period.
2. The stuff on my FTP site can _not_ be used to judge a RedHat
distribution by.
3. The stuff on my FTP site is _not_ RedHat, period.
The stuff on my FTP site is a half-baked mixture of extremely old various
bits'n'pieces which has stuff missing left right and centre because I
gave up supporting the whole community, mostly because it became a give
only situation. (Hence the reason why I publically will only do kernel
work now).
I repeat again, the stuff on the FTP site is _not_ representative of a
RedHat system, and if you think it is, then, erm, well...
It was placed there as a kick off for ARM Linux, which it has done
successfully.

And the reason that no one is working on that is because various people
enjoy spreading FUD about RedHat, or are daft enough to believe that
what I have on my FTP site is RedHat, and believe that it can't possibly
produce a working system.
So please, let's be more correct when explaining the differences in the
future.
