Red Hat gives up on Fedora Foundation
Submitted by hitbsecnews on Thu, 2006-04-06 22:34
In an open letter distributed to the Fedora community earlier this week, Red Hat employee and Fedora project leader Max Spevack states that Red Hat is no longer interested in establishing an autonomous, nonprofit foundation to manage the Fedora project. Instead, Red Hat will revive the Fedora Project Board, which will include five Red Hat representatives, four members of the Fedora community, and a chairman appointed by Red Hat who will possess veto power.

Fedore Core 5 Released!
Submitted by hitbsecnews on Tue, 2006-03-21 17:20

A quick look at Fedora Core 4
Submitted by hitbsecnews on Sun, 2005-06-19 07:49
Fedora Core is the offspring of Red Hat of what was previously their Red Hat Linux range. For a history of Red Hat Linux and Fedora Core, you can have a look here. Anyway, Fedora Core 4 is what could have been Red Hat Linux 13 if Red Hat had not decided to turn Red Hat Linux into a community project. This is not a review but just a quick look at the various bits and pieces that interest me. Fedora Core 3 was a disappointment to many because it was slow and did not included many new ground-breaking features.
