Our product and principles builds our brand; If the audience is thinking we adopt buggy brand new software and technology, the gut feeling will be that Fedora is buggy -or at least that's what I assume leaves the biggest impression. Some people though think it's cool as it's way more of an engineering distribution if something fails every now and then, rather then *just work*. Though if the audience sees we adopt brand new software and technology without exposing them to whatever child diseases brand new software and technology usually has, they may slowly but surely start thinking we are innovative instead of buggy. As the presentation also suggests, it's anyone's gut feeling that makes up the brand, not us. We can't tell anyone what kind of gut feeling they should have when I sneak up behind them and whisper "Fedora" in their ear. It's them. How do we change that?
