That basically seems to require that everyone who wants most recent FG needs to 
update to most recent Linux. Which is something which according to my 
experience Linux developers do, think everyone else does as well, but normal 
users don't. The normal Linux users I know ask someone else with a bit of 
background knowledge to install Linux for them and resolve the inevitable 
hardware problems, and then they use the package manager to get what they want 
- but they don't install the next version of Linux because they can't do it 
themselves.

It's a bit like requiring Windows users to use Windows 8 if they want FG 2.8 - 
we don't seem to do that.
