That's my understanding on where we want to go and I hope we make good progress with this. FC1 has been very solid in my opinion. FC2 has kind of rough corners with the big step to a 2.6 kernel and the starting point to update many user level rpms plus really adding into a solid desktop. Current FC3 looks nice to me, but I might be the wrong person to ask this. (I tend to like all development trees.;-) For your above comments: I'd wish system-config-packages plus some other tools would be more connected and working better together. I am not sure all that can be cleaned up within FC3 development timeframe. It's a huge area to work on. The new repository support just going into the Fedora development tree are again bits of this. greetings, Florian La Roche
