updates and weekly (re)spins, if I stay with F12 for a month after F13
is officially released, I could then download the latest unity (re)spin,
and be up to date with most updates integrated. It is conceivable that
the (re)spin is more bug-free then the actual QA'd production release.

What
prevents you from restricting yourselves to updating only once a week,
if this fits your needs better?
The fact updates are being
offered more frequently doen't necessarily mean you have to update
"immediately".

Hi Ralf,
I would like to do that which I said I could do and which you suggested.
I am not a yum or yumex expert (which I prefer yumex to packagekit), but I would love to put in a restriction whereby to only download the primary updates that are older then a specified date. (That could be today - 7days). Is there such a facility in these products?
I was also thinking about respins. If a new person decides to try Fedora, why not point him to a (re)spin?
Now that we have terabyte disks, perhaps the respin could be a delta against the official released version, much the way the current yum deltas work. I am just tossing out ideas.
