Oh, that's just lovely. Trying to keep us on our toes, huh? ; ) Oh well. This should probably be put in the release notes so maybe it won't bite too many right off (or at least we'll have an excuse...). For the future: How much testing did this kernel get? Looks like it came out in the March 15 (today...) build, and it is already in the images? That doesn't seem like a particularly ideal situation. Especially being still a good while before the release. If the images are already made up, is there a reason they won't be available (anywhere?) before Monday? Is it just anti-climactic, or what? : ) Though, I seem to recall hearing rumors of FC4 images being leaked out early in some places. Seems something like an early release via Bittorrent only wouldn't hurt anything (it's supposed to be good for distributing large files, right?). Just thinking out loud mostly, I guess.
