A call for faster Fedora updates in response to security vulnerabilities
was recently posted to the Fedora devel mailing list; it urgently advocated
changes to the process so that
updates, in general, and to the kernel and packages based on web
browsers, in particular, are handled more expeditiously. While Fedora
developers are sympathetic to that, there is only
so much the distribution can do as there are logistical and other hurdles
between Fedora and its users. It turns out that, to a great extent, Fedora
can already move quickly when it needs to.
