Yes I know about the updates dir.. :)

If you look at the RH9 errata ( 
https://rhn.redhat.com/errata/rh9-errata.html ) there have been 7 
security updates since the last kernel update and these have not been 
updated in Fedora ( make it 6 since the one came out today :) ).. I 
would have hoped that security updates would have a high priority to get 
out on any distro, and thats what I am trying to find out about..

Like I said maybe Fedora does not need these updates because it is 
running newer packages than RH9 anyway..

I don't mean to upset or offend anyone i am just trying to find out what 
the security policy of the dev team is..

later..
