I would say yes. One example would be the issue regarding extra printer 
entries being pulled in by HAL. If we work around the problem and do not 
report it to the package maintainer/developers, the bug never gets 
attention to be corrected.

This workaround instead of reporting the problems is most likely because 
most have some experience with proprietary OS systems and old habits are 
hard to interrupt from. Fedora is freely available software so freely 
submitting problems you notice will help clean up the product.

Regarding Fedora and its direction. I see the distribution changing for 
the better in reliability and with ease in getting new programs 
installed and configured. I run FC6 and development and feel the 
reliability of development is not as rocky a road as it once was from 
RHL to FC timespan.
