Holy Crap!!  Didn't know I was involved in that LOL.  Or at least I
don't remember most of it, just the initial "what the heck is going on
type thing" and trying to help explain or inform of what I *thought* was
going on.  Heh, think a lot of that was people jumping the gun, thinking
it all was gonna start happening "now" and not thinking it might take a
while to get it going/started.  Anyway, not gonna start "that" convo up
again..

I don't see what that would hurt.  Maybe something along the lines of
"Driven by the Community, sponsored by Red Hat!" type thing?

+1 though :)
