This is nonsense.
Fedora-4 is not "bleeding edge".
That is like saying the Ford Ka is the bleeding edge of transportation.
Fedora-4 is just a collection of supposedly stable RPMs,
most of which were available in FC-3 anyway.
A bug is a bug, and should be corrected, not excused.
I think Fedora-4 is pretty good,
but too many bugs got past those who should have been looking for them.
Linus Torvalds has a far more difficult job with the kernel,
and very little seems to get past him and his team.
