By "dead-end", I mean a product from which you cannot upgrade to the
next release or it's equivalent. For instance with RHL 9, I can upgrade
to Fedora Core 1 or RHEL WS/ES/AS. I've told been by different sources
that upgrading would not be possible with RHPW. Which, in my opinion,
doesn't make make sense because it is still RPM based. Can one upgrade
from RHPW to RHEL? Now granted if it is based on the same code set
nothing should take place correct?
