Why is it not public any reason why we the community cannot know how
much we cost?

I don't think there's any particular reason, but one thing is that it's
not particularly obvious even within Red Hat: there isn't a single nice
clear Fedora Budget, money gets spent on Fedora out of all sorts of
other budgets. It may well be the case that *Red Hat* does not know
precisely how much money Red Hat spends on Fedora. :)

I contribute regularly to opensource projects (monetarily) with no issue. While I take JBG's anti-RH implications with a grain of salt, he has highlighted a lacking there. It *should* be easier to contribute, although I cannot see this happening if Fedora is a legal entity resides state-side.

To clarify, I think RH is an awesome sponsor, and the resources they provide do separate us from other distros, and for that I am grateful, BUT there needs to be another way to contribute
