Why mostly only notices about Redhat?

[David Fetrow]

 Redhat is the most common (Linux) by far on campus.

 If Redhat has a patch, the others do already or will very soon

 => take these as a "heads up" for the other distributions.

 Dave Dittrich's time is limited.

 So, even though I personally don't run Redhat much, it's still
 useful to the rest of the Linux community.
