Also agree that history is important and interesting. That said, there was
history before RedHat and RedHat certainly built on that foundation. In
any case, even an article restricted to the history of RedHat/Fedora would
be interesting to me. I know a few of the names, but not most of them. If
somebody doesn't start writing the history now, the "source code" (people
who made the history) will be dead and unavailable for interview/commentary.
Also... ANYONE is qualified to write an article. Remember; Noah's Ark was
built by amateurs, the Titanic was built by professionals.

doesn't
seem very Fedora specific, and we try to concentrate on that for the
Magazine. I would encourage more topics that are practically useful
for our readers.
