Let's try to keep it good-natured bashing. ${somevar:+"$somevar and more"}

There are good things about all of the distributions. There might also be
limitations. If you want a post about Fedora 8 being released why don't
you make a post with a subject about the release and give us a rundown of
what's new and improved.

Hmmm, not sure I'm good with this. I see the benefit, but I think it's
going the wrong direction. I'm sure Darrin will pipe up about how it's a
bad thing :).

We all have our opinions. Through discussion of different opinions and
perspectives we all get the opportunity to learn.

I didn't know about the Pulse Audio thing until Alan mentioned it last
night. I'm definitely interested in learning more. Maybe that could be a
presentation in the near future...
