You got it ? SERPRO (Brazilian Government IT Department) has more than 9.000 desktops running Fedora (in all brazilian states) and now is migrating to Ubuntu, because is impossible to migrate every year to other Fedora Release. With the short time support is impossible to work and use Fedora. So, thinking in this way, Bill gates is correct! "We think of (FEDORA) as a competitor in the student and hobbiest market, but i really don't think in the commercial market we'll see it in any significant way" Bill gates So we have to say that ?? - If you are a Geek, a student or developer, you can use Fedora otherwise, you have to use Centos or Red Hat EL. Great marketing guys!! With this idea we will conquest the world!! Sorry, but, for me it don't make sense! I can't work in a project in a cooperative way, contributing and cooperating with something that's not to be used in a serious way. -- Rodrigo Padula de Oliveira M.Sc.
