Now that it's no longer Daimler-Chrysler and just Chrysler, the UAW ain't asking for it any more. Why? Because they still need Chrysler, their employer. ;) Same deal. Events will ask for money from Fedora(TM) if they think Red Hat(R) will provide. If Red Hat(R) will not, then they will still invite Fedora(TM). Why? Because the events still need Fedora(TM). ;) > Most of the work done by the local ambassadors were in vain since we > couldn't afford to pay more.

I really need to write an "unofficial/non-sanctioned" Fedora(TM) and Red Hat(R) FAQ like I did in the past to explain this stuff. I would open it up for commentary for accuracy, etc... Until then ... Fedora(TM) exists for a reason, many times on its own ;) -- Bryan J.
