Red Hat "The wait is almost over. It may have taken two weeks longer than Red Hat would have liked, but Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5, the updated version of the company's commercial Linux platform, will be launched along with a bevy of new products and services on March 14. The delivery of RHEL 5, the fourth major commercial server release for Red Hat, will better position its Linux against Novell's SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 as well as Windows, Unix, and proprietary platforms."

Yes, but Etch will be better. ;)

Not in the security area. RHEL5 will have all the security features used in Fedora Core 6 -> http://www.awe.com/mark/blog/200701041544.html

I looked at build logs from Debian packages and they do not use FORTIFY_SOURCE, Stack Smashing Protector, network services are not compiled as PIE, etc. Feel free to prove me wrong ;)

PS That wasn't who voted you down.
