Earlier this evening I was asked how I expected Fedora to function in
any way similarly to how it does now without the backing of one or more
organizations like Red Hat.
I gave the quick answer "through donations" since I was not in mood to
give the detailed answers ( and taint that thread even further ) however
I'm about do it here to certain extent since the questioner probably did
not expect me to have actually given this any thought which I actually
have although I have not chiselled it into stone, making it the concrete
proposal the community demands since it's just a small fraction of a
larger idea or rather vision I have but I have decide it be the correct
time to share that part of that vision of mine with the rest of the
community to gather feedback.
Under the current model I thought it is not possible to make monetary
donations to Fedora (I remember Jared Smith saying something about
this at a linuxconf.au a while back) Hardware, physical items,
consumable media etc is OK though. Something to do with US taxes,
correct me if I'm wrong.
Looks like we need to get the Fedora name out of the states
