Dear All,

Why should one upgrade Fedora whenever a new version is released? What
are the main reasons?

Thanks in advance,

Paul

Today we have an upgrade tool that makes the upgrade process almost seamless. That is, as long as you upgrade every time. Miss a version, and you're in trouble. Miss two or three versions, and any major change will force you to do a complete, wipe-your-drive re-installation.

As to why it matters: software is always subject to updates. Some of this is required for security reasons. And any version of an operating system must come to the end of its life, or else you have no time to invent anything new.
