fewer testers may actually be a good sign. in the early days, fedora
may have been a novelty that only the hard-core geeks were willing to
play with, so they were happy to bang away on it and risk having
things blow up in their faces.
today, fedora has gained enough mainstream acceptance that people are
using it in production and they're just too darned busy running a
stable shop to mess around with alpha releases anymore.
in short, maybe it's 'cuz fedora has grown up. or something like
that.
