Did he actually have any *good*, persuasive reasons for > such changes? Wow. This was my bad in assuming everyone knows who Adam is--a very good natured and helpful person. He was formerly with Mandriva, I think, and came to Fedora where he has made enormous strides in seeing things from the user standpoint, getting bugs filed, making Fedora a much better distribution (and better documented), than it had been. My statement's implication, though of course, tongue in cheek, was that Even Adam thinks.... So, for any friends or fans of Adam on this list, I apologize if that came out as a putdown or anything more than a jesting complaint. -- Scott Robbins PGP keyID EB3467D6 ( 1B48 077D 66F6 9DB0 FDC2 A409 FA54 EB34 67D6 ) gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys EB3467D6
