This is quite an interesting comment. "futzing" is definitely one word that
applies to fedora over recent years.

Somehow I feel that many linux developers don't use linux for anything
other than developing linux. So they don't actually know (or don't care)
that their decisions have consequences for people that are real.

Honestly, most people (as in net/sys admins) don't even use Linux anymore.
They use Windows 7 or Macs. The volume of mail to this list is a fraction
of what it once was. I can only assume that successive versions of Fedora
have alienated users to the point they have just left.
