I started with RH8 moved to RH9 then to FC2. When I finally got my new

Hmm... I'm still quad-bootable - RH9/FC2/Gentoo/XP

Same here. But since I also have FC2 as Servers and such, I stay on to
learn and to help.

I believe that you are wrong in that aspect. Although each distro is
different, the software is the same. You may be using shorewall on
RH/FC/Gentoo, it's still shorewall and the same rules applies.

Even if your "help" doesn't help, by staying on this list, you'll
understand the finer details and the difference of each distro and
you'll learn how to use them to your advantage. 

The way I see it, you'll only Gain, and others will gain (those who
wants to learn anyway) and it's a win-win situation.

I feel that that's because RH managed to get into the Enterprise level.
Most ppl aren't too happy with RH ditching their RH line and coming out
with Fedora.
