I am with you here!  :)

but I can tell you of a Fedora that never goes EOL, it
always gets updated and when something occasionally
goes down, there many kind people of the fedora
community that help out and fix it.  They bring the
next fedoras to life which are the ones that with the
EOL problems.

The Fedora version that never gets EOL'd is called
rawhide.  It works and you do not need to worry about
politics just help in testing.  Just tag along for the
ride.  Testers are always welcome :)

Everybody makes mistakes.  No one distro is the best
in everything.  I see errors made by all distros.

However, like you have mentioned mission critical
servers Slackware/RHEL/CentOS or others fit the bill
better.  If users out there use Fedora for that there
are no guarantees that everything will work with every
update.

What I agree with him is the politics, not the EOL'ing
of all Fedora.  He could run Rawhide and it will never
be EOL'd so he is wrong in that regard.  The basic
Fedora/stable versions are the ones that are EOL'd.

Res has been quiet for a long time, last I saw a
thread reply from him was with the selinux threads
where he shared his thoughts with the list.  As for
Karl he has been around and well known on the list for
good:) or for bad:(.

I am pretty sure that problems will be encountered
with whichever linux distro he chooses and since he
chose Ubuntu, he will find out soon enough whether the
Ubuntuans will tolerate his messages or not.

Sorry for speaking my mind as well.  Not everything is
perfect and we all have our differences.

Antonio
