Jose, Thanks for pointing these out - I'll try to look into them tonight. With fc6 test3 out, I'm going to need to provide the release team with a 'good reason' for the updates. I can look through the change logs, but if you know of any specific bugs that these updates will fix, sending them my way via bugzilla would help me out tremendously. -RN Jose Pedro Oliveira <jpo@xxxxxxxxxxxx> writes: > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- > Hash: SHA1 > > Robin, > > It would be nice to have the following topics taken care before > the FC-6 final release: > > > 1.
