I tend to keep my Fedora-based machines on the current release cycle; while systems aren't my core IT strength, going through the exercise every 6-8 months exposes to things at the periphery of my IT understanding/knowledge. On this go-around, I'm 2/3 of the way there, one more machine to go. Going through the various googled information my upgrade problem is tied to flaws in fedup; these have been recognized, and a fedup upgrade has been readied for release. What I don't know, is how the Fedora Updates cycle is prioritized. My F18 experience, in general, has been ok. I'm a frequent user of PostGIS and Postgresql; given that F18 is now bundled w/ Postgresql 9.2, PostGIS 2.0.x and related dependent packages have not been upgraded/made available in time for the F18 release; they still aren't available, several weeks after F18 release (an updated Postgis 2.0 et al. for F18 recently got canned by reviewers). All of this makes F18, somewhat unstable as ecosystem supporting Postgresql/PostGIS. In some ways, that's the nature of the Fedora Project: push the Linux bleeding edge. Nevertheless, some sense of scheduling and progress would help (as in a news source).
