Another example: hplip is still on 2.7.7 for F8 right now while upstream
is at 2.7.12 in between and supports 22 new printers (
http://hplip.sourceforge.net/release_notes.html ). We don't provide any
solutions for users that buy those printers right now besides using
rawhide. Thus they have to wait/ask for a proper update or wait until F9
or -- the latter means waiting about 6 months for driver. That's IMHO
unacceptable -- especially as printer manufacturers release successor
models quite often (it feels to me like a new successor model get
released in each printer class about once a year, but I didn't check).
What about NetworkManger? While our release engineers were screaming
"It's not ready!" and refusing to enable it by default, Ubuntu was being
credited for saving linux with it.
