Perhaps you have your head too much in the Branched world right now? In my experience, in the last few years, Fedora stable releases have become much more stable. My "stable" boxes here at home I have not really had to poke at since I upgraded them to Fedora 17. I apply updates every few days and things keep working along fine. In previous cycles there were some real nasty brown paper bag type blowups that required me to do things to downgrade or tweak to keep my stable version working, that (knock on wood) hasn't happened in f16/f17 in my experence. I realize there are bugs and problems that hit, but I think the stable updates policy has helped keep those down. (Cue KevinK to come in and shout and tell me how wrong I am, etc etc) I'm personally -1 to any kind of rolling release beyond rawhide. kevin
