If Red Hat is already a Apple Developer Enterprise Program member, great. If not, I'd advise any Fedora developer ask Fedora legal to review that EULA before they agree to it. -- Chris Murphy -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
