Bosh, with fc5, you can choose kde.
I did.

I guess I did not express myself well.

It was only a side point that the FC community supports KDE well, incrementally via yum even though it is not their preferred desktop.

Yes, both FC and FC-derived YDL allow you to install both. But if you know anything about RedHat and the decisions they made, you'll know that KDE is a latecomer to the distro and is definitely the overlooked stepsister.

They still put money into Gnome and OOo, but were forced by the user community to include Rex Deiter's KDE work.

I'm not sure if that bosh was meant personally.

Its a minor point I was making. Fedora's community (remember that the YellowDog work is derived from this) IS supportive of incremental updates. And that's even though strategically RH is behind Gnome and pushes Gnome.

(And yes, I know RH has less to do with Fedora now, but all the heavy lifting in FC is RHL.)

Best, Ted
