As I've stated before ...

I left the commerceware, let alone hostageware, world because of
stuff like this.  I really don't care for it in the freedomware
world.  ;)

There is a difference between "marketing and expanding" the Fedora
user base and marketing "against" software.

Oh so true.

I honestly don't think Mr. McLaughlin just realizes what he said
(regardless of whether it is true or not).

Furthermore, clearly playing devil's advocate, there is no reason to
"save" any distro against another.  Distros will be adopted or not
adopted on their merits and/or usefulness for users and
organizations.

I use Fedora.
I use Gentoo.
I use Xubuntu.

Not losing any sleep over any distro that needs "saving" or marketing
"against" any other.
