Is Fedora really gaining that much ground with every bi-yearly
release to
justify that pace?
Regular release are pretty much a requirement for providing large
numbers or large scale updates. Providing some of these large scale
updates just arent practical without breaking an existing release and
waiting a year or two to launch major updates kind of goes against the
spirit of "leading edge" that Fedora is well known for.
After all Red Hat is not a desktop but a server, right?
Fedora is not Red Hat. Red Hat releases are based heavily on Fedora
and a lot of Fedoras infrastructure resources come from Red Hat. tThat
is where the link ends.
And Chrome could kill current races to find a desktop to compete with
Windows.
That just aint gonna happen.
So why not concentrate on what Red Hat/Fedora does best?
But regular leading edge releases of open source Linux _is_ what
Fedora does best.
Let Ubuntu grind out Gnome and KDE enhancements.
Open Source is about choice. Sure Ubuntu can grind those things out. I
on the other hand think Fedora does it better.
How often does Solaris release desktop distros?
Solaris has very different aims.
