First we try desperately to educate users that they should always update, even write pretty applets for it and other programs that make this possible Then we tell them that they have to master editing config files and learn about exclude-lists? Sounds puzzling to me still :-) Choice is encouraging people to upgrade to RHEL, or FC6, taking away choice is putting things in updates that people without our tech knowledge would never suspect Ps, on the list I've seen a few times @redhat.com's suggesting changing to RHEL, which sounds as good as a solution to me as a @microsoft.com's suggesting upgrading to Windows XP .. in both cases they take away some of the merit of the argument your trying to make
Ok non-redhat person suggesting.. if you are going to run a mission critical server that is going to need to stay stable, not change for a couple of years, etc.. then use Red Hat/Centos/Scientific Enterprise Linux. Linux is about choice. Some of those choices are choices that a user gets to make, and some are choices that the developers get to make. -- Stephen J Smoogen.
