Hard to find just the right place to interject my $.02.... All the discussions/go-rounds on this Red Hat 9 issue can probably be summed up in that old adage... "You can make some of the people happy all of the time, all of the people happy some of the time, but you can't make all of the people happy all of the time". Some people are unhappy cause 8.0 isn't being upgraded with the newest in application X. Some people want the latest version of lib Y...but when it comes out others are unhappy cause they have to update application Z which means you need to update the config file. Then there seem to be those unhappy with going from 8.0 to 9.0 because surely since the beta was called 8.1 there must be an 8.1 before you do a 9.0. Then there is the issue of binary compatibility....but isn't tht what you get when you move forward sometimes? Got to have the latest in XYZ....but it *must* be stable. Wouldn't it just be more fun to go back to the "old days" when every sat around trying to guess the name of the next release? Then, wait until it comes out to see if it is really as earth shattering and sky falling as some contend? Sorry....maybe I just need to develop some more procmail filters. :-) -- http://webcams.greshko.com/ Do you this man, Peter Boeni? http://www.shorewall.net/ for all your firewall needs -- Psyche-list mailing list Psyche-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/psyche-list
