Ralf,

I disagree.  Fedora was constituted as a free software distribution.
There were many struggles and false starts along the way, and we all
have the battle scars to prove that.  But things are getting better, and
now we are in a position to make good on a promise we made at the start
of the project.  Religion has nothing whatsoever to do with this.
Courage, commitment, freedom, and accountability have everything to do
with this.
