Red Hat Linux Project Merges With Fedora
An anonymous reader writes "Red Hat has announced a merger of its Red Hat Linux Project with Fedora Linux, a group that has specialized in providing high-quality RPM packages for Red Hat. According to Red Hat, 'The Fedora Project is a Red-Hat-sponsored and community-supported open source project. It is also a proving ground for new technology that may eventually make its way into Red Hat products.' From the FAQ: 'Rather than being run through product management as something that has to appear on retail shelves on a certain date, Fedora Core will be released based on schedules, set by a steering committee, that will be open and accessible to the community, as well as influenced by the community.'"
Why Fedora? Why not sombrero or chapeaux? Why pick something associated with the mob?
..."hats off" to these guys.

That was a pathetic attempt at a troll. In order for such a troll to work, the post must be long enough for the moderators' eyes to glaze over and possibly miss the "easter egg". You are a dismal failure.
"Rather than being run through product management as something that has to appear on retail shelves on a certain date, Fedora Core will be released based on schedules"
So instead of basing it off dates, they'll base it off dates! Ah, well in THAT case...
It sounds like you want Red Hat Obsolete Enterprise Linux, and they'll be happy to sell it to you.
This problem, however, is beyond the control of Red Hat or any other distro.
Yeah, its a shame, too. If only there was a license that would allow people to see the source then modify/redistribute it as they see fit.....

The product is so underdone it's still cold, and you get sick if you eat it?

Umm, Control-F makes bold text in the swedish version of MS Office, and starts a search in just about every other application. They can't even get it right within their own set of applications.
Um, hello? That's the Swedish version.
So, you can complain all you like about how crappy the Linux desktop is, but I have actual proof that at least one fairly computer ilitterate person prefers GNOME before Windows.
Wow. I'm convinced now.

It's that time again, folks, since it's apparently a "no-brainer" now to choose Gentoo over Red Hat (or any other distro). Yes, it's time for another link to... the Amazing Gentoo-Linux-Zealot Translate-o-matic!
