This is not what I was implying; obviously we shouldn't rush our release
at the expense of quality.
But what RedHat has been sponsored to do in Europe is to fill the same
niche we are trying to fill: a high-performance multimedia desktop
operation. It's a contract we might have gotten if we had a working R1
release right now; I just thought that was interesting. I wasn't trying to
troll or goad anyone into anything, just trying to maintain awareness of
other stuff going around us.
