RULE does not offer these updates itself, but as RULE is available for
Red Hat Fedora Core 3, there are currently updates available from Red
Hat itself.

Don has a point, though. The lifetime of Fedorea Core is rather short,
and Fedora Legacy is not always as fast as I would like it to be. When I
then look at the FC mailing lists, I see a lot of the arrogance formerly
reserved for Debian. This is hurting me in my soul (I've been a follower
of Red Hat nearly since the beginning), but I'm starting to come to the
conclusion that it might be time to switch to another distro. Debian
comes to mind (not that there is much other choice left...). Sorry for
the rant...

Marco, could you please fix this and remove the en/ from the URL?

Best regards,
