Way to represent Fedora by being a jerk.

Next time try to "be excellent to each other." Two things I personally get tired of 
reading. A rhetorical question comes to mind "Would you rather he was excellent to you and 
lied saying it's a splendid idea when he feels differently just to spare hurting your 
feelings?" Kevin represents himself not Fedora. He is an individual and is free to his 
opinions.

The rolling release idea comes up annually and a lot of developers/contributors 
get tired of wasting time sending and reading emails about it. Another is a 
long term release, I can't count how many times that has come up in the last 
few years. I'll not apologize for Kevin's response because honestly, I agree 
with him.

I didn't call him a jerk because he disagreed about the potential of Fedora as a rolling release. I called him a jerk for being a jerk. I offered nothing but praise for Fedora, and he started the response with "just go away".

There is a difference between disagreeing, and being an asshat.

Back on topic. It wouldn't continue to come up if people didn't see value in it. Simply discarding the idea because "a lot of developers" feel that it's a "waste of time" is not valid criticism of the idea.

If you "can't count" how many times it has come up, perhaps you should investigate it because there is obviously potential in the idea.
