Redhat Gave Up Fedora?

jedipi
RedHat just created a Fedora Foundation to manage the Fedora project.
Fedora project will not be controled by RedHat any more.

Is this a good or bad news??
Would Fedora have a big change in the future??

Sorry...forget to post the source link.

Good news is that the entire Fedora project is more open now.
Also, Fedora Core is one of the most popular Linux distributions out there, so there is no need to worry
ps. Fedora was never fully under control of red hat, the reason red hat started Fedora was because they wanted to abandon red hat linux for personal use and concentrate on the server market.

I think there are more groups maintaice the Fedora Core.

So more software will be present.

Like Symbian 6.0, I think it is great successful.

    On several occasions, I have attempted to install Linux on my computer in a dual boot format to

    installed a couple of versions of Red Hat, Unbuntu, Gentoox, GoblinX, and now a couple of versions
    of Fedora Core. The only thing all of these have in common is that installation is problematic at
    best. While most distributions of Linux include all the required software to set up a server, I
