I appreciate that that's important, but please keep the server room in mind as well. In our environment, the network is like electricity -- if it's down, nothing is running. Having the software designed to be robust against unexpected network glitches is very useful, but if design decisions are constantly made with the assumption that networks are a random transient resource, we'll end up conceding our place in the data center in exchange for an incredibly tiny slice of the desktop pie. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxx> Senior Systems Architect -- Instructional & Research Computing Services Harvard School of Engineering & Applied Sciences -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
