Go download Debian, use it for a while, and see another open source
distro in action. Then make a comparison between the development model
of Debian and Fedora. Then dwell on your switch and the reason you
became upset over Fedora, and what you are actually looking for. You
obviously have been using RH8 or 9 and up2date which you'll have in
Fedora as well. If you need longer release cycles...spend some money.
Ask yourself, have I contributed to any open source project(coded,
donated any money, tested, or anything at all?).
The main point is you need to figure out what open source is and read a
bit about something before you start all the whining and writing flame
junk mail. This list is a users list not an abusers list. RH gives us
hand outs and then moves to a more open platform, and still keeps
giving, keeps their developers on the project, and they can't make some
people happy.
One thing to keep in mind: The individual projects get updated as minor
releases are released from their web sites, thus how long have the
release cycles actually been. Same thing Microsoft XP is doing if you
are auto updating.
Some of this reminds me of a poem....
I never saw a wild thing sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough
Without ever having felt sorry for itself.
