Fedora has its own leadership, its own developer base and its own priorities. Fedora is allowed to go its own way with casual disregard for RHEL. I see this as a good thing - without the room to explore, there's no way that we'd produce something that resulted in RHEL shipping with exciting new features. But it does mean that sometimes decisions are made that others feel aren't appropriate for RHEL - in that case it's something that needs to be argued either with upstream or with your Red hat support contact. -- Matthew Garrett | mjg59@xxxxxxxxxxxxx -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
