I support that.
For me, yum is the best thing that has come out of Fedora.
It has saved a substantial number of my grey cells,
as well as hours if not days of my time.

Thank you, Seth, and adios.


Something along these lines might be good.

The last time something along that line was discussed, a dedication was done for the release. Dedicating the F20 release to Seth, rather than naming it after him, seems to be more in line with past practice. Considering the magnitude of his contributions to Fedora, I think that a dedication to him in F20 would be a nice thing to do. It won't bring him back, but would probably help the community.
