how bleeding edge will the next fedora release be?

I could, until Redhat went and priced themselves out of my range. I
could afford a few dollars a year for the privilege of downloading fixes
from their servers; I even bought my first couple of distros from them,
before I got my broadband service. I have a job and a wife, each of
which expects 80% of my time. I spend my days doing software testing
and support; when I get home I want to be able to download my email,
browse a few web pages, and pay my bills without having to worry about
reporting any problems I might encounter.
Incidentally, it's the last of the above that insures I'll be using
Win<whatever> for quite a while to come. At least until Intuit ports
Quicken over, or some bright programmer writes a package that runs on
Linux and talks to my bank.
Cheers.
