Fedora security response time

A call for faster Fedora updates in response to security vulnerabilities was recently posted to the Fedora devel mailing list; it urgently advocated changes to the process so that updates, in general, and to the kernel and packages based on web browsers, in particular, are handled more expeditiously. While Fedora developers are sympathetic to that, there is only so much the distribution can do as there are logistical and other hurdles between Fedora and its users. It turns out that, to a great extent, Fedora can already move quickly when it needs to.
