It just sounds like this is the "beta" releases only. The never have supported beta's.

Ben, "Well, this is sad. No more official support for the people that made RH what it is today. This seems a bit nasty.

We just went with RH9 at my place of work. They wanted RH because "that's the standard" I warned them about RH EOLing their consumer version in 12 months, but this is much worse. Maybe when we go to upgrade I'll try harder to talk them into Debian."

Red Hat Linux will still be supported, they just branched their beta releases into a seperate project/name.

From the main page, " Fedora Project is a Red-Hat-sponsored and community-supported open source project. It is also a proving ground for new technology that may eventually make its way into Red Hat products. It is not a supported product of Red Hat, Inc."

It just sounds as if this is a "open" development platform for Red Hat Linux, I don't beleive this is bad.
