Well, I will reply for you and  Alexander Larsson   and the rest of the list.

1- I didn't mean at all to underestimate Warren.
2- I wasn't putting silly comments, or raising the signal/noise ratio

I said it as a comment that I felt there is no clear procedure on what
goes in and what not. Even RH engineers don't have a reference to go
to regarding why something is added or not !!
It was my point of view, and I think it is my right to see clear
procedures that clarifies what certain settings are made in my
preferred distro.

Back to the main topic.
