Now, this is a great idea. No more worrying about upgrades or do I have
enough time before the next release to make all the changes. What about
he secondary repositories for things that will never be in Fedora proper
that you have to wait to be released.
I would like to see Fedora 7 or Fedora 8 become just Fedora and then no
more 6 month release dates. Just updates to what would be the next release.
