the direction of these projects. "
a) The question about how much money Redhat spends on Fedora is
irrelevant. Redhat needs Fedora. Redhat didn't decide to support
Fedora out of the goodness of their hearts. Fedora users are Redhat's
key to innovation.
b) The above quote doesn't say anything about the intended software
quality in the Fedora project. All it says is that its a test bed.
That doesn't mean its a testbed of beta software. As a matter of fact,
how can you gauge the usefulness of a piece of software if its beta
quality ?
Seriously? Am I just misreading? I don't see it defined as a test bed there.
How does 'proving ground' and 'laboratory' differ substantially from
'test bed'?
