Hmm, after rethinking, the Fedora Free Media can be a really better
solution -- we can give a gift to someone and receive much more than if
it would be fulfilled by some other company. Satisfaction, greetings and
new aqcuaintance -- this is something that would be impossible in case
of different fulfill ways.

Free and Sponsored Media works - infact it's working better all the
time. We're able to fill more and more requests every month. We're
bringing on on more Vendors willing to offer their services to help keep
fulfilment up.
If that's not successful, I'm not sure what is.
The great thing about Open Source is the way people share ideas across
multiple communities. But with all the distros I work with the only
thing that I ever hear about Ubuntu is that they've got lots of users
and that they are well funded.
I never hear about ground breaking packages that will vault OSS, as a
whole, forward.
That sort of stuff is coming out of Fedora.
So let's not worry about keeping up with the neighbors and focus on what
we're doing well.
