Things churn even within a release. A fedora release is more of a snapshot + some cleaning up to make an installable release. Generally new packages are not added, and we'll keep binary compatibility, but things can and do churn, like kernels, or X. We're not providing a stable application platform, that would be RHEL's job. We're providing something different. -- Jesse Keating Release Engineer: Fedora
