That's a problem for you, not for us. I don't believe that your slow connections should prevent the rest of us from installing it and sharing the knowledge. > Can we hold off with the questions till we've had a chance to look at it? > It's not even officially released for cryin out loud! > > Or post it on the shrike list (is there one yet?) That is the right answer. Yes, there is a shrike list, and that's where distribution-specific queries should go. Similarly, 8.0 questions should be on psyche-list. IMHO, redhat-list should be for issues that are generic across distributions. > Sorry about the rant.

There are people out there who have it installed already. Yes, there will be more over time, but that doesn't mean we should discuss issues and resolutions until more people have it installed. After all, if it turns out to be a bug, then it would be nice to have Red Hat issue fixes before the masses (like you!) get around to installing it. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
