as per the Red Hat wish list for Fedora, they mean to make it a "General Purpose" OS for everyones need. But will it really be ? They and Fedora Project has clearly mentioned that the releases will be on bleeding edge release of packages. Doesn't it seem to be a all time Beta OS ( Or I should say Red Hat Beta Release). It doesn't have a structure like Debian of having stable, testing and unstable which IMHO should be.

Given the track record with redhat of how often upgrades go wrong, and the fact that such an upgrade requires more downtime, I think a lot of people will worry about that.
Is fedora there to provide a good distro to users, or to exploit users to redhat's commercial benefit?

Is it just me or do others get the sense that some people on this list feel that the fedora developers owe us a stable, easy to use, easy to upgrade, rock solid distro?
Fedora as a community distro is only as good as the community.
Have you tested the upgrade path? Have you donated money, or time in a meaningful way to make sure fedora has a clear and bug free upgrade path? If not then I wouldn't be complaining about the upgrade capabilities.
