Ubuntu: I would strongly discourage making direct comparative statements between fedora and other popular fast release schedule distros. You run a very very real risk of spreading misinformation about the other distros that we as a community have less overall experience with and we end up looking bad in the process. You make a biased mis-representative comparison and people's BS detectors go off. You make an obvious sin of omission or fabrication and people are going to call you out on it..publicly. Avoid direct comparisons at all costs....especially with the other quickly moving distro projects, its a changing landscale and you run the very real risk of being bitten by a lack of experience and out of date information with what you are comparing against as the other distro evolves in parallel to Fedora. You want to make a comparison to slow release cycle variants..I'm okay with that. But I don't think you want to get into the business of trying to revise information based on a shallow understanding of ubuntu every 6 months. I don't want to see anything approaching the grotesque release review hatchet jobs I see floating around in the techpress sitting on any project controlled communication channels. -jef -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
