Traditionally the forums are filled with grumbles about things that don't work, and questions about how to work around some of those things that don't work as they should. However occasionally it is nice if someone says something positive about Fedora and sends a thank you to the people who devote so much time to making the new things happen at all and who then spend considerable time and effort in fixing the inevitable problems that will always occur when you create new stuff. Since F10 was released I have installed it on 4 systems with different hardware. One acts as a dns and dhcp server, and the others are a desktop and two laptops. All are running dovecot imap servers in a slightly non-standard way. Although I did have some frustrating times working around some issues mainly associated with SElinux due to some non-standard ways of doing things, I now have 4 systems running the way I want them to within my LAN, with no SElinux denials, and performing efficiently and seemingly faster than the F8 systems they replaced. These are now being used by family members who have had smiles on their faces when using the new systems. There are some new things yet to enthrall us like KDE4.2 before too long, and Thunderbird 3 on the way and I would like to thank all the developers and the testers who have brought Fedora to its current level. Fedora is ahead of the opposition and cutting edge - and mostly it now works and works well. I hope there are many silent Fedora users out there who would back me up on this! Have a great Christmas and I hope that the New Year brings us even better Fedora experiences.
Yes, I agree, that thanks should be given to hard working developers around the world wo do a lot of great things for the most part. Many have day jobs and are volunteering their work, with no pay, and for pure pleasure, which could be an oxymoron, in some cases. So many thanks are in order, for those who do quality work. The grumbling, gripes, etc. should be there - after all - who's gonna keep the pressure on them? Ha. I gotta laugh. Me thinks we need the good, the bad, and the ugly... as I believe that is nature's way and a balanced mix. Without pressure, would progress be stagnant, slower or Faster? Sometimes if one complains - the complainer would be so disgusted and end up fix the da*n thing themselves and hopefully offer a fix to the community - and in that case, it is a good thing? Hmm... well, it's something to think about. But nonetheless, have a good holiday!
