But, isn't that exactly what RHEL/CentOS are? RHEL/CentOS 3 were based on Red Hat Linux 9, RHEL/CentOS 4 were based on Fedora Core 3, RHEL/CentOS 5 were based on Fedora Core 6. I presume that RHEL/CentOS 6 will be based around Fedora 10 or 11.... So, RHEL/CentOS are the Long Term solution for Fedora. What I think is lacking (but seem to be being worked on), is a convenient "upgrade" process within the "family". So that if I use Fedora 9 or 10, that I could "in-place" upgrade to RHEL/CentOS 6 when it comes out. Historically, using RHEL/CentOS for desktop has been problematic for some given their "stability" and "lack of movement". But it does appear that this is changing. Looking at RHEL/CentOS 5.2 compared to 5.0, there are some actual version upgrades to some of the packages, so perhaps it becomes more feasible for more people as a desktop. --Rob -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
