Red Hat Trying to Make Fedora More Open?

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the nice-hat dept.

Chillybott writes "CNET reports that Red Hat is trying to bolster more support for the Fedora project by giving the users more control over and input into the development process. The article states that they have made their CVS repositories visible and hints that soon members of the Fedora community will be able to act as distribution maintainers. Seems like a good idea to me, although their choice of acronyms for their conference leaves something to be desired."

    Awww.. what's wrong with "FUDCon"??

    Most the people I know that use Linux are doing so strictly out of FUD....

    What would you have preferred? "Anti-MS-R-Us-Con"? "Fear the MS: use something you might understand!"

    I think that anyone who starts off their message body with "I like Fedora..." and their /. login ID is greater than 250000 should be automatically modded down 1 point. Clearly, they are not early adopters.
