Do you feel like Fedora is not a success due to that model? I think both that Fedora is a success and what is not working properly is not due to RH imposing any pressure. > ATM, I am seeing to many "dark room" decisions taking effect, which are > not in the community's interest. Very true, but I don't think there is a difference between community and RH here. My personal dark chamber blues are led by a community member. > > If you like, you could consider that some part of the fesco > > non-technical powers it once had have been elevated to the board, > > and vice versa the board dropped micro-managing into engineering > > related questions.
