I would shorten this to a few salient points.  We are a community

ownership by anyone - Red Hat or not.  The number of people working on
Fedora who do not work at Red Hat outnumber Red Hat employees three to
one.  We have a governing board that is made up of both Red Hat and
non-Red Hat folks, all of whom are passionate about free software and
live the values they preach and use to govern the project.

Anyone can participate.  All they have to do is show up and start doing
something.  That's a community distribution.

OK, I have removed the sentence. I think it was left there from an earlier description of Red Hat Linux or early Fedora versions, but clearly, it's no longer correct.

Thank you all for your input :-)

Thanks Ladislav. Appreciate being responsive to feedback. We hope our new planned features like integration of Big Board and Mugshot will demonstrate our focus on desktop usability too in Fedora 8.
