Fedora follows the kernel packages very closely, Openoffice, KDE, GNOME, etc., why are those packages mentioned here not in the same realm, after all I know that ImageMagick releases updates very much, while running rawhide we get lots of new packages every day and why are texlive, ImageMagick and other programs left a bit behind?
