Hi Christian,

to be perfectly honest: the text tickled my bullshit detector multiple
times. While that's a common occurence when being confronted with
advertisements I don't think it's a good match for Fedora. We need to be
honest with our users.

We are held to a higher standard than our proprietary competition, and
rightly so. When folks place their trust in free software projects they
shouldn't feel like they're watching commercials.

Nevertheless, the text serves well as a base to build on. And now that
Paul took the, err, unique opportunity to rework it we've got a
considerable result. So thanks for writing it up!
