I hope no one will mind, though, that the Fedora Marketing team has been preparing information on Moksha and Fedora Community to drive some additional interest around the public beta: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Moksha_in_Fedora_11 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/F11_Talking_Points Rahul, I'm not sure I understand what your purpose is in this particular sub-thread. As far as I can see, everyone here is trying their hardest, and succeeding, at Doing It Right, and your issue is primarily that either you didn't see the announcement or don't have time to read all the material personally. No shame in being merely human like everyone else. I'm not even on the Moksha list myself, because as fascinating and awesome as I think it is, I'm just out of cycles. So I'm doing what I can by participating in the Marketing team's work to make sure people know what the project is, and its capabilities. Let's not waste time and breath beating up on people, most especially those undeserving of it. -- Paul W.
