please do not explain me my world :-)

important for me is not important for customers
if it goes down i take it to the office a make a dd-dump back

my point was that i am testing many fedora-packages often long
before updates-testing is seeing them and it doe snot help
much if maintainers say "hm bugreport, however i push to stable"

and YES the 3.5.x currently in F17 stable is a problem
3.4.7 for F16 is a security update

so until someone knows what is going wrong in 3.5 the
right decision would have been build 3.4.7 for F17 too
instead psuh blindly 3.5 out - and after such decisions
someone is wondering why people start ranting?
