Hey Mike,

There are lot of problems with Fedora to be sure. Everyone who is actively
involved in Fedora is aware of this problem and umpteen others that need
fixing. The main problem is that with so much to do, we have to
prioritize. In order to fix the issue you raised, we'd have to stop doing 
other things that are more important to the long-term success of Fedora.

Getting resources to fix all the problems immediately is just unrealistic.
What we can do is continue with our present group, persevering at making
improvements so that in the long run things do get to the way you want
them to be.

We could use some help to get there a little faster - would you be willing 
to chip in?
