So much for the stated policy of following upstream as much as possible. If it is an important change why not get upstream to change it? It appears that every time someone outside of Red Hat wants a change the standard answer is to get it changed upstream. Why is this different? It is not like Fedora will stop working without it. :-) I actually agree with the change, but I am just trying to understand what the policy really is? Regards, Tom
