You can obviously do what you would like but again I suggest you research
the purpose of the fedora project and it is based on that purpose that I
made the statement.  The purpose of the project is develop OSF and at times
many things maybe broken and at different levels of development.  While they
are adequately tested, they still may have major problems and it is also
stated by the way that you should be cautious about using the products in a
production environment.  Before you go calling someone stupid you need to
read (there is nothing like getting the facts).  I was cautioning this guy
about using this product in a production environment because he doesn't have
support other than this forum.  So as I said people who don't understand
what the fedora project is about should be leary of using any of the
products in a production environment stupid.
