If you have a system you are developing that needs to run on RHEL/CentOS, you start development on RHEL/CentOS not on Fedora. The same goes for anything - if you were going to deploy on Ubuntu 8.04 (the most recent LTS version) you wouldn't start development on Ubuntu 8.10 would you? -- Jeff Ollie "You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair.
