Why not? Feel free to post.
But you can also post it on the linux.redhat newsgroup, the
linux.redhat.install newsgroup, the linux.redhat.misc newsgroup and so
on. Depends on what type of question you have ;-)

Should I use 'yum' and 'apt' in order to manage installation of package rpm
within Fedora ?
Is yum intended to manage (install/remove) packages which are available
'online' while apt has to be used for packages available on disk ??? Is it
true ?
Can you give me some enlightment about these programs (yum and apt)?
Does it exist some 'graphical front-end' as those that one can find with
Mandrake ?
(I completely new, and my system is not yet configured for Internet (Usb
Alcatel Modem SpeedTouch), so it is not easy to switch continuousely between
Linux (in order to try to install it) and a certain other system (in order
to be able to read the documentation on Internet ... ;)
Thanks beforehand,
Dominique

Use what you like to use.

Not true. Both tools can handle RPM repositories on internet servers as
well LAN or even local hard drive repositories.

For apt there is synaptic. For yum there is yumex:
