It says 'the previous stable Fedora release' - which strictly means "only the single preceding release" - not 'a previous stable Fedora release' or 'any previous stable Fedora release' or anything like that. I suppose it's a distinction which is clearer to a native speaker, admittedly, it's a bit of a fine point in English. That's definitely why it's written that way, though. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/test
