Lyceum was a fork of Wordpress to do multiple-blogs from one install, and they've worked to rebase on Wordpress regularly. However, Wordpress MU is the formal effort from Wordpress itself, so it might grow to be stronger with the rest of Wordpress. It would presumably play more nicely with plugins, etc., but I've no experience there. Here it is in the words of WP themselves: http://mu.wordpress.org/faq/ I wouldn't put a ton of weight on what Red Hat Magazine is using. It could be switched at any time, right? At the time that RHM was put together using a blog engine, Lyceum was the clear choice. - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, Sr. Developer Community Mgr.
