Is there a distribution which offers pretty close to latest versions of everything when it releases but then just maintains things with only security updates and such until the next release?
I believe that is the goal of most of the Enterprise versions out there...
But Slackware's been doing this for ages. Also, doesn't Ubuntu do this already? I can't believe that Fedora Core would not have this capability.
What I've found frustrating with Ubuntu (well, Kubuntu really), is that when doing updates, there is very little information about what's been fixed. Adept just doesn't seem to list the security CVE codes. Maybe I've missed it and need better glasses. Don't know much about Fedora's update mechanisms.
