Hi,
Since it has come up recently, I figured I'd briefly mention that some people in the desktop team, QE, and release engineering had a few lunchtime chats about our update process. I tried to write down some of what we talked about: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Desktop/Whiteboards/UpdateExperience
I later found out that there are a number of different initiatives underway that may help with this problem. So, that is good news.
Interested to hear your thoughts.
Thanks, Jon
