Clearly, he knows it isn't ready to replace yum yet. If he thought it was, he'd be filing a Change to replace yum with dnf, not writing a blog post trying to get slightly wider testing. This is possibly the most useless thread I've ever seen on devel@, and that's some strong competition. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
