Well, having spent most of this weekend with installing F16, I don't 
sense any change in quality. Some issues have been resolved, others been 
ignored, new ones have been added. As with all previous releases, some 
of the "novelties" Fedora is infamous for are not working smoothly.

Finally, yes, I have to agree, in comparison to F15 (which I consider 
the worst Fedora ever) I sense some "quality" improvements.

Right, to the public, Fedora has become a "freak's niche".

That's one possible conclusion.

However, if you follow the OP's rationale, one logical conclusion would 
be "Fedora needs less RH".

Another conclusion would be: Fedora should contain less experimental SW.
