1/ Because I prefer to test for Gnome, than test for Redhat (and as you
suggest, RH9 doesn't really need testing at this stage).
2/ Because I'd like to get a stable version of Garnome built, before the
2.3.0 branch arrives with it's 'niggles' ;-]

Sure, I thought I was.  Everyone in OS says YMMV, and use at own risk,
but when you attempt to educate yourself before diving in, they just say

 And no one spoke and no one smiled,
 There were too many spaces in the line.
 And Gathered at the cenotaph,
 All agreed with hand on heart, 
 To sheath the sacrificial knives.

"But now...
 She stands upon Southampton Dock
 With her handkerchief, and her summer frock
 That clings to her wet body in the rain. 
 In quiet desperation
 Knuckles white upon the slippery reins,
 She bravely waves the boys goodbye again"
