Not really.  It is the next thing that is stable after the
bleeding edge.  Think LibreOffice and Firefox and the kernel.

Yeah, thank you Todd and Margo. From https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/#_first
"we provide the latest in stable and robust, useful, and powerful free
software". We definitely don't want to be bleeding edge. We have an
excellent and incredibly active QA team, and our goal is for you to be able
to follow all of this upstream open source innovation _without_ blood or
injury.


I rankle at the "bleeding edge" statement hurled at Fedora.  The QA
teams does not let buggy stuff lose on us.  I am so tickled with
Fedroa after all those years on RHEL and clones, that it has been
a year and a half now since I migrated everyone over from RHEL
to Fedroa and I still get the giggles watching everything JUST
WORK!

Well, not everything, just 99.9% of it and I have been able
to get fixed what does or worked around it.  Totally
different culture/attitude than RHEL.

As far as RHEL not working on the C236 chipset, it is their
bastardized kernel.  I do not think there is any hope of
it ever improving.  Kind of a house of cards.  Keeps them from
running a current kernel.  and keeps them "stable", meaning
frozen / no improvements.

Fedora is the most wonderful example of Kaisen (constant
improvement) I can think of.

Okay one last slam at RHEL: "You did not use the approved
hardware list!"  Oh, you mean the one with such out dated
hardware on it that I can't even find it anyone, even if
I wanted to?  Not even on FleeBay?  It is their universal
excuse for low quality software.
