Questions for Red Hat Co-Founder?
ConceptDog asks: "Co-Founder and current Director of Red Hat, Bob Young, is going to be conducting a presentation at my school. In addition to his presentation, there will be a question and answer session. Considering that my school is rather small (less than 3000 students at my campus), there is a good chance that I might be able to ask a question of Mr. Young. So I'd really like the Slashdot community's help in coming up with a good question to ask. If I get an answer, I'll post what it is, here."
Will you eat my shit?

Or maybe a british redcoat?
My question would be, "What the Hell were y'all smoking when you made the decision to rename the non-enterprise Red Hat Linux to Fedora Linux, and could you pass some of that stuff along? Thanks!"

Id like to know this too. Why pick a language thats new(and not trusted), slower(not compiled) and known to only a few(comapared too real langauges like C/C++)? Is remembering to free memory that bad? Does it make your head hurt? Do you feel special using something new? Anything serious is always written in a real language.
