then i seriously think we are following different lists :/

as adam's poll is starting to show the majority of fedora users choose 
fedora for the fact that it is leading the way with the newer software 
and that it has constant updates. (ie 
freedom,friends,*features*,/*first!*/) this argument that most fedora 
users want a more stable system is not what the fedora users i came 
across are after. tbh i think this whole identity crisis is blown of of 
all proportion, you'd think that something like this would have come 
with the fedora10 dbus probs or the 'stabilisation cannot be detected' 
not now with a little kde popup window :0
