Well, one thing is for sure: It has to short of a life time. :-)
Anyway, even if they did say that the intention was to have three releases a
year, I can't imagine them even been able to make two. FC1 came by beginning
of November, and even if they have said there will be a second release in
May, I doubt they are going to make it before July.
Anyway I have to see how the upgrades perform, because depending on that is
how bad an idea it is to upgrade each 6 months (RedHat had some bad upgrade
issues in the past).
