Upgrading from Fedora Core 6

An expert tells users with Fedora Core 6 not to worry about the merger; just upgrade to FC7.

What does the merger of Fedora Core and Fedora Core extras mean for those of us running FC6?

The merger will take place for FC7, so it won't directly affect you if you're running FC6. If you update to FC7, I expect your life will get easier, as you can avoid one extra step to obtain software.
