Hi Dave and everyone else who may not currently be a Fedora user on
this list. Participating here and elsewhere makes you part of the
Fedora community and a welcome part of it. As another old guy on the
list let me shoot Dave a big thank you for cut and paste. Not much
code lasts as long as that has and still retains its usefulness. I
can't imagine the volume of data touched by these programs over the
years but I do know they made my computing experience better.

On the topic of using Fedora for servers I'll just say consider your
choices and pick what works best for you. For most servers that won't
be Fedora, but for some it will. Here is one high profile example from
a few years back.
