Fellini Thu, 24 Sep 2009 11:08:39 +0000 http://www.workswithu.com/?p=1150#comment-5933 I don't think it matters that Red Hat produced a mini distribution or not the reaction would pretty much be the same as I see here. SIGs do produce nifty and quite interesting things. If the Fedora project or related SIGs participate in efforts that gain traction they may very well obtain sponsorship from commercial firms. People do good things to make others happy. In spite of the many complaints that people should not waste efforts on building parallel projects, I believe in competition as a driver of innovation. Note that Fedora and Ubuntu (and others) are meta distributions that have come up with quite nifty goodies that are always impressive. Perhaps the divergence of efforts makes it easier for developers to push out great features that may otherwise have not gotten the attention of upstream developers.

Didn’t Red Hat say they weren’t interested in the consumer market." Yes. Red Hat has't released a netbook distribution. Fedora as a community distribution is working one one. What's your confusion? “Fedora Mini? Didn’t Red Hat say they weren’t interested in the consumer market.”
