That's Red Hat's official opinion. In my opinion, Red Hat's opinion is based on their need and desire to sell their commercial product. You'll find a very different opinion on the Fedora list, especially in response to a thread I contributed to with the subject of "CNET News Article". > I'd like to get some opinions regarding Fedora and its viability in a > production environment.

While I have real concerns about using Fedora in commercial applications, I believe they may just be overcome in time. In the meantime, the Fedora Legacy group has committed to maintaining RHL 7.3 into the future, and that's what I'm sticking with for now. Jeff -- Jeff Lasman, nobaloney.net, P. O.
