I haven't had a chance to try it yet, or even read up on it.  It only
runs as a GUI?   That's a deal breaker for me right there. 

Meaning no denigration to all those who work so hard to bring us a nice
operating system, if Fedora is in many ways a testing ground for RH,
which is more of a server O/S, I don't know too many sysadmins who are
going to rely on a GUI only tool for upgrading a bunch of headless
servers. 

Sigh, back in the old days, when we walked 5 miles through snow--uphill
both ways of course....

prosciutto.
