I wouldn't say that. Currently it is of questionable value currently but
it would be much more valuable without just version bumping and more
careful thought put into justifying the need for updates. Every update
adds to a large cost in terms of build time, bandwidth, potential
regressions etc.
There are distros for people that feel that way. I don't think any of
them are named "Fedora".
Then there are distros that believe in following upstream and shipping
their bug-fixes and feature enhancements. I'm using my favorite one of
those :-). Such distros, incidentally, are great for developers (/me
waves) who need to follow upstream (due to dependencies, or just desire
to watch upstream) but who need something more stable than rawhide.
Should we not release any updates without a Fedora bug being filed
asking to upgrade to the latest upstream?
