Neither OpenSUSE nor Ubuntu are as quick to pick up new technologies and
run with them into a stable release.  Quite often they pick things
up /after/ Fedora has done a release with them and worked through all
the hard problems.  They are also slower to release, and don't provide
nearly as much opportunity to participate in the development of the
operating system as Fedora does.
