Raymond Knocks Fedora, Switches to Ubuntu
narramissic writes "After 13 years as a loyal Red Hat user, Eric Raymond, co-founder of the Open Source Initiative, is switching to the Ubuntu distribution. In a message distributed to Linux mailing lists and news organizations, Raymond cited technical issues with Red Hat, such as the way repositories are maintained, the submission process and 'stagnant' development of Red Hat's packaging technology, as well as governance problems, the failure to gain desktop market share and the failure to include proprietary media formats. 'Over the last five years, I've watched Red Hat/Fedora throw away what was at one time a near-unassailable lead in technical prowess, market share and community prestige,' Raymond wrote. 'The blunders have been legion on both technical and political levels.'"
i seem to recall WWII being a war for peace. odd.
The war with islam is a war on the beast
The war on terror is a war for peace
Yah, and WWI was "the war to end all wars." Clearly, the "war for peace" tactic worked brilliantly in both cases, as there were no conflicts (hot or cold) after them.
In other news, Britney Spears has lost control due to a drop in the Red Hat fans. http://google.com/trends?q=ubuntu%2Credhat%2Cspear s&ctab=0&geo=all&date=all
