My comment is: why upgrade when it ain't broke? (really, why?) (I have several rh73 server boxes that are doing a very fine job, I'm _not_ going to upgrade just for the sake of it. And probably not for a long time. Why create a lot of extra work for myself?) Another point is that rh81 is due for release in a few weeks, it might be worth the wait. All that being said, people are using rh80 for serious production purposes and they don't seem to be hurting (despite its various quirks). Meanwhile, it might be worth browsing through bugzilla.redhat.com to see what problems are being reported for it. > TIA > > Jeff Cheers Tony -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@redhat.com https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
