The market for fedora... are people  in the community who want to be
more than users.. people who want to contribute.  I really don't think
fedora as a distribution is aimed at any particular userbase. I don't
think fedora should make any strong claims to being a system for the
casual users or for server admins or any other "target" group of
users.
