I just deemed it an interesting comparison, although completely useless But of course, you have to know what you're doing to configure a custom kernel, and it also takes time (YOUR time, not just your computer's) to configure it. which isn't a bad thing after all, because at least learn something and 'make oldconfig' is such a wonderful command ...

Builder outage
If folks hadn't already heard, large portions of the northeastern united states are without power right now, and that includes my house, so the builder has been offline since Saturday, and it doesn't look like power will be back for at least another day or two, possibly more. --jarod

Sorry to hear that! I hope the weather is cooperating so it's not too intolerable. Richard

Sorry to hear that! I hope the weather is cooperating so it's not too intolerable. Its warmed up, so most of the snow is melting, and we have a decent sized generator keeping the heat, water, fridge and lights going, so its not too bad. Now that I think about it, even when power comes back, I have no clue if my internet connection is actually functional... The essentials are working though, and I do still have mobile data service (plus, the office has full power). --jarod
OpenCascade license?
I'm taking a shot a building FreeCAD since I'm a CAD jockey in my day job and a good free CAD solution would be neat. It has OpenCascade as a major dependency, which uses their own license[1]. They claim it's LGPL-like. Would this have to go in free or non-free? Thanks, Richard [1] http://www.opencascade.org/getocc/license/

Would this have to go in free or non-free? per Tom Spot Callaway and Red Hat Legal it is non-free, you should be able to find the details in the archive of the fedora-legal mailing list and/or OCC package review request in Fedora bugzilla. OCC 6.3.0 is available from http://fedora.danny.cz/danny/ and it would be nice to see OCC in a more official repo. Dan
