Besides... Someone has to push these things out first. If no one pushed

way of testing. Getting xorg 1.5 into the F9 betas gave it more testing
than if it was just confined to the people who compile their version
of X
from the source code repository. Yes it causes pain for some users, but
it makes for a much more stable version for the rest of us once the
initial bugs get worked out.
Yes, we've had this flame war before. Last time, it was said that Nvidia
has no intention of updating their drivers to a new Xorg ABI until a
distribution releases that version in a *stable* release. That means if
every distribution waited around for Nvidia to have their drivers ready
before release, we'd be waiting forever. So go bitch at Nvidia, not us.
Standing around and waiting is not what Fedora is about. We move fast.
Don't like it? Use something else.
Please post that on the http://fedoraproject.org/ page so everyone will
understand what to expect.
