A typical Fedora user wouldn't ever see this and the point isn't really credit but continuity from Red Hat Linux. Long term contributors might and people who are actively involved in the linux community will but not regular end users who just use the distribution which is the large majority wouldn't. They will just see the bootup screen and background. Even the website is somewhat a secondary audience but since we have now a start.fp.o home page that is more prominent too.btw, what would be the impact if an ordinary Linux user d'nt know about who is the sponsor of the Distro he/she is using?
As I already explained, Fedora releases have a long standing legacy of Red Hat Linux releases. We are losing long term users and potential contributors who aren't aware of the transition. There are a number of sub projects which take advantage of this continuing including EPEL.
