Heh... at the rate Red Hat is pulling packages, version 4 will probably
include nothing but the kernel... with the driver modules sold as "a
separate, layered product "... :-D

I 'm just teasing the Red Hat guys a bit, but I still think it would have
been appropriate to include a list of new/removed/deprecated packages
along with the rationale in the release notes, as has been provided with
the RHL releases. In fact, I think this is *more* important for the
RHEL users than it was for the RHL users. (And I 'm not so much
*complaining* as just trying to explain what would make *me* happier as
a customer...)
