It’s just got growing pains.<\/i><\/p>\n
It’s not that the aims are to create<\/a> another Debian, or even that its to have the size and scope<\/a> of it (i.e. Fedora doesn’t aim to run on as many architectures as Debian does, not in this early stage at least, till the volunteer base builds up).<\/p>\n A good summary<\/a> of the issues are even now on LWN, but icon really did portray whats going on. We (the OSS community) know there’s a lack of communication – this can be fixed. We know Red Hat is interested in fixing the Fedora Project – they talked about it at their world wide conference<\/a>.<\/p>\n Think about it, companies just don’t just open source their babies overnight<\/a>. It takes time. Patience is a virtue, but normally, patience comes when good communication exists, so we’re back again to lacking communication with the outside world (i.e. those not @redhat.com). The recent outbreak at fedora-devel-list exists because of lack of communication – read soon & eventually<\/a> from the participate page, as thats an attempt at some communication.<\/p>\n So, stop and think for a moment. You want CVS access? Surely RH can’t give you access to the build system (lest you screw up RHEL, their new RH Desktop, etc…). We want rh_sales to stop bagging Fedora – we need our own “sales team”, and definitely we need to make sure that whatever brainwashing rh_sales goes thru removes such thoughts. And yes, we’re always going to have to deal with rh_legal, because this is a project “sponsored by RH” – maybe a public forum for some of the legal blokes to hang out at (fedora-legal mailing list?).<\/p>\n Things are slow, but patience always means good things happen eventually. Wait for the next Fedora News Updates, there’ll be some interesting scoop there :)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" It’s just got growing pains.
