Yes, and hopefully members on this list will turn their attention to dicussing
and tracking BUGS. After all, isn't this the MAIN PURPOSE of the 
"rhl-beta list". 

Instead, I see long-winded (*possibly*) academic discussions which proport
to second-quess Red Hat's marketing and political decisions ... leadint to
NOTHING productive, WRT improving the product that is now being tested:
to wit, Red Hat SEVERN Beta (RH 9.0.93).

Another point: this thread is also quite confusing, since some posters
*insist* on TOP POSTING. I won't go into that. Suffice it to say that one 
can always count on human obtstinacy and stupidity ... and get filthy
rich doing so. 

Just ask Bill Gates.
