Red Hat Explains ArsDigita Purchase

hezron writes "Red Hat VP, Howard Jacobson, sent a mass email explaining their acquisition of ArsDigita's assets. Here is the press release concerning the acquisition." The press release is actually a quick FAQ about the purchase - Howard does a good job of explaining the purchase and the reasons for it. Howard's a smart guy, and I hope that the purchase of AD will mean a longer life then how AD's past management was handling it.

Maybe you shouldn't bother, smarty pants--"impart" is a transitive verb and you seem to have forgotten the direct object. ;)

Congratulations, you've managed to make the exact same obvious joke that has been made every other time ArsDigita has been mentioned on /.

Of course - and I got a couple points karma out of it. I thought everyone had signed up for that franchise? :-)
