(1) Rahul is undoubtedly the single most helpful person
contributing to this list.
In fact he is one of the main reasons why I run Fedora ...
(2) Having said that, I agree with your comment -
one should if possible always add a few words
to explain the relevance of a link.
(In my experience, Rahul nearly always does.)
On my ancient laptop, it takes a little time - 20 to 30 seconds -
for a link to come up,
and it is mildly annoying if and when one finds it is irrelevant.
(Unfunny jokes are my particular bete noire.)
