We rely upon the value these sites bring. One value is that they have been there, in some cases all along, where we have foundered. Not only would it be not-fair to assimilate them, they have name recognition that we didn't earn. Another value is in being able to more freely discuss some topics. For example, in Fedora Documentation, we focus only on software you can get in Core or Extras. However, those aren't the only solutions out there. These sites are free to recommend any software and method that solves the problem. We'd have to expand our scope by a huge amount, and dilute the value of our Fedora-only documentation, to bring these sites under the Fedora Documentation umbrella. We have enough work as-is with the current scope, thankyouverymuch. :) Another example is the typical one, all of the non-free/potentially patent-infringing discussions. > c) can we work together as there are others > trying to do this with the existing resources (read archives of f-m-l) This is the vision I have and have been trying to build: * Third-party (3-p) Fedora sites are part of the f-marketing-l and f- docs-l, to help coordinate and keep informed on what is going on with similar efforts within Fedora. * 3-p sites coordinate together through a mechanism of their choice, some of which are in the works. These mechanisms are made freely available to Fedora Project members who want to monitor or contribute. * We run parallel collaboration, so the 3-p sites fill in the gaps we cannot, in a manner we will not. - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, RHCE * Sr. Tech Writer * http://people.redhat.com/kwade/ gpg fingerprint: 2680 DBFD D968 3141 0115 5F1B D992 0E06 AD0E 0C41 Red Hat SELinux Guide http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-4-Manual/selinux-guide/
