Very good to "listen?" words like these from nonFedora users. An
acknowledge like this should be encouraging to us.

"Sometimes we've had people say 'Why don't we do the Fedora model?'
Well, we're at such an early stage of OSI adoption that there needs to
be a conscious level of experimentation -- business models, licenses,
products -- in order to foster the next generation of innovation. And
that thrashing around is OK. We want to encourage that level of
experimentation. Maybe it puts a bit more burden on IT to understand the
subtleties of these licenses, but the payoff is high and the effort is
not exorbitant."

Note carefully the implication here: that the way Red Hat and Fedora
interact and complement each other is what you do when you've *finished*
thrashing around, and want to do open source business right.
