I do still run a rawhide test box here... but I admit I don't look at it as much when we are ramping up for a release. > Could it be that Fedora lacks the resources to maintain both Rawhide > and the next-release branch? In retrospect, was No Frozen Rawhide as > good an idea as it seemed? We could indeed revisit it. I think it's still useful. I always build new stuff for rawhide first before pushing to f15. I'd like to hope most other maintainers do as well, and perhaps autoQA can nag and get those who don't to do so. I think in this case it was just a matter or not getting the proper folks attention to fix the issue. ;( kevin
