Fwd: Fedora 13

[Larry Cafiero]

Hi, Marketing Folks --

Earl Malmrose of ZaReason, a computer maker in Berkeley which offers Fedora
as one of the OS options on a range of their products (mostly the
laptop/netbooks, I think), sent me this question in the e-mail below and I
couldn't answer him.

Does anyone know if such a wiki/website animal exists in the Fedora realm?

Thanks in advance.

Fedora 13 is looking good. We're now offering it as a preload option on our
Teo netbook. Are there any wikis/websites listing where to buy hardware with
Fedora preloaded?

As far as I know, distribution listed some ways for obtain a Fedora
Media. No matter that distribution wiki said something about OEM, they
are not listed. Distribution includes online vendors, regular stores,
sponsored media and freemedia. That is the closest thing that I have
ever see on wiki pages.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Distribution

The main problem with vendors, is to keep track when the abandon the
business. There were talks about a new front page for distribution
including new options a calendar for events and a list of magazines
(including issue) carrying fedora discs and all the list getting auto
filtered based on geo-ip. Maybe it will be interested to include
hardware pre-loaded with Fedora. Most activity for distribution is
discussed in Freemedia mailing list. You may want to poke Susmit about
this idea.



Best regards

Larry,

I don't know of a page but maybe that should go on the download site
along with where you can buy media.

We should be able to incorporate a link to the Distribution page on
the wiki, and then organize pages there as needed.  I don't think it's
a good idea for the website to maintain a list of OEMs; much easier to
maintain that effectively through a wide community of editors on the
wiki, which I think Neville pointed out earlier.
