Hello Greg, Seems to be a balance act between new development funstuff and a more controlled environment that a bigger user base can consume. Compared to rawhide only, using the update repos to get new code reviewed/stabilized/integrated is a very fast and powerful tool we have within Fedora which keeps us moving along pretty rapidly. We should add more dependency checks, maybe more rpmlint-type other checks in the future. Also an automated process to move between the "test" updates to the official released updates might be a good idea. >From what I've heard many Fedora users changed over to not automatically install updates, but rather do that e.g. every 4 weeks only. (The balance between a developer-oriented and a bigger user base will always stay a problem area.) regards, Florian La Roche _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
