Give me a break. Alan is just not anybody, and neither is dwmw2, and others in Red Hat. Also, we've just been told how Fedora is essential to Red Hat's business strategy, and why we can't have a Foundation. Which is fine by me, but this means you can not have this 100% separation between Fedora and Red Hat, which is conveniently waved whenever there are uncomfortable questions.
And please don't tell me there's no connection with RHEL. We wouldn't have this conversation now if Evo would be maintained. If you can maintain it for RHEL, I can't see why it will not be maintained for Fedora. And if so, this discussion would be moot. But since lots of RH people call for its immediate demise, it can only mean that it's going to be dumped in RHEL as well.
Dumping Evo now, after being pushed for years by RH, can not be a Good Thing (TM).
