Just in case any of you aren't on the Announce or Fedora lists, you can
read this for yourself.
Sorry for cross posting or if most have already read this, but didn't
see anyone from either list (or I missed it) really commenting much on
it.

> =========================
>
> Last June, Red Hat announced its intention to launch the Fedora
> Foundation. We've had a lot of smart people working hard to make this
> Foundation happen, but in the end, it just didn't help to accomplish our
> goals for Fedora. Instead, we are restructuring Fedora Project, with
> dramatically increased leadership from within the Fedora community.
>
> The next obvious question -- "Why no Foundation?" -- deserves a detailed
> explanation.
>
> ===
>
> WHY NO FOUNDATION?
>
> When we announced the Foundation, it was with a very specific purpose, and
> in a very specific context. The announcement was made by Mark Webbink,
> who has been the intellectual property guru at Red Hat for a long time
> now. His stated goal for the Foundation: to act as a repository for
> patents that would protect the interests of the open source community.
>
> Once we announced the intention to form a Foundation, people inside and
> outside of Red Hat were interested in working beyond the stated purpose --
> an intellectual property repository -- and instead saw this new Foundation
> as a potential tool to solve all sorts of Fedora-related issues. Every
> Fedora issue became a nail for the Foundation hammer, and the scope of the
> Foundation quickly became too large for efficient progress.
>
> A team moved forward to create the Foundation itself. We created the
> legal entity, came up with some very basic and flexible bylaws, and
> appointed a board to run it temporarily. This all happened pretty
> quickly, because this was the easy part. We had articles of incorporation
> in September 2005.
>
> Then came the hard part: articulating the precise responsibilities of the
> Foundation. This conversation took months, but ultimately it came back
> around, again and again, to a single question: "What could a Fedora
> Foundation accomplish that the Fedora Project, with strong community
> leadership, could not accomplish?"
>
> So here, in order, were the possible answers to that question -- and why
> we found, in every single case, that the Fedora Foundation was not the
> right answer.
>
> ONE: The Fedora Foundation could be an entity for the development of an
> open source patent commons.
>
> This was the obvious starting place, and what we actually announced. One
> of the lurking concerns of the open source community is the threat of
> software patents. The Fedora Foundation could have been an ideal
> repository for defensive patents. We envisioned soliciting patentable
> ideas from businesses and/or individuals, paying for the prosecution of
> these patents, and then guaranteeing open source developers the
> unrestricted right to code against these patents using a similar mechanism
> to the Red Hat patent promise.
> (http://www.redhat.com/legal/patent_policy.html).
>
> What we weren't counting on was the rapid progress of the Open Invention
> Network (http://www.openinventionnetwork.com/press.html), which serves a
> similar purpose for businesses in a much more compelling way. Without
> going into too much detail, it became clear to us that OIN is going to be
> the 800-pound gorilla in the patent commons space, and we were eager to
> join forces.
>
> OK, so much for soliciting patents from businesses. What about
> individuals? If we were to focus the Fedora Foundation's efforts on
> soliciting patentable ideas from individuals, how many could we get? Our
> gut decision: not many. Most developers who actually work for a living
> have agreements with their employers that prevent them from pursuing
> patents independently. Many university students who pursue patents are
> required to grant them to the university.
>
> After putting a lot of work into the idea of a Fedora Foundation patent
> commons, in the end it just didn't seem compelling. So we shelved the
> idea.
>
> TWO: The Fedora Foundation could act as a single point of standing for
> legal issues.
>
> The Free Software Foundation serves this purpose for the GNU projects.
> We thought that the Fedora Foundation might successfully serve the same
> purpose for Fedora projects. Have you ever noticed that the GNU projects
> all require contributors to assign copyright to the FSF? That's because
> there's this legal idea called "standing" that matters deeply to lawyers
> and judges. Here's a little skit that helps to explain why standing is
> important:
>
> BAILIFF: Come to order for case Z-38-BB-92. Plaintiff is Small Software
> Project. Defendant is Great Big Computer Corporation.
>
> JUDGE: OK, have a seat, folks. The docket is busy today, and I've got a
> doctor's appointment in two hours. Plaintiff, what's this all about?
>
> PLAINTIFF'S COUNSEL: Well, your honor, there's this license called the GPL
> that the defendant is *totally* violating. Basically, they stole the
> plaintiff's code and put it into their software program.
>
> DEFENDANT'S COUNSEL: Hold it right there. Your Honor, plaintiff doesn't
> have standing in this case. There's 100 different developers that wrote
> this code, and the plaintiff only represents six of them. Plaintiff
> clearly doesn't even have the legal right to sue us, Your Honor.
>
> JUDGE: Looks like this case could be Pretty Hard, and this whole
> "standing" thing gives me a perfect excuse not to think about it.
> Counsel, get back to me when you've got the other 94 plaintiffs.
>
> So, standing is a big concern. In the world of lawyers, it's one of the
> big potential unknowns around defending open source projects, especially
> projects that have lots of contributors.
>
> The obvious problem with establishing standing in this way, though, is
> that a single entity *must* own *everything* in your project. That's why
> the FSF *requires* copyright assignment.
>
> What Fedora projects currently exist where copyright assignment makes
> sense?
>
> Well... none, as it turns out. Let's look at some of the current Fedora
> projects as examples.
>
> At present, the two most successful Fedora projects are Core and Extras --
> which, together, basically constitute a big Linux distribution. And what
> is a distribution? Ideally, it's a high-quality repackaging and
> integration of content owned by others. That's the whole point. In such
> cases, copyright assignment makes no sense at all.
>
> Then there's the Fedora Documentation project, which produces
> documentation and makes it available under the Open Publication License
> (http://opencontent.org/openpub/) without options. Given the liberal
> nature of this license, it just doesn't seem all that useful to ask
> contributors to assign copyright for defense of these works.
>
> Then there's the Fedora Directory Server, which Red Hat purchased and open
> sourced. No question who holds standing there; it's Red Hat. The time
> may come when the Fedora Directory Server project is ready to incorporate
> lots of changes from the community, but until that time comes, the
> question of copyright assignment is pretty much a theoretical question.
>
> Which is what a lot of this comes down to -- the question of legal
> standing is either an open or theoretical question at best, and probably
> better left to an organization such as the FSF that focuses a great deal
> more attention on these types of questions.
>
> Put another way: we have a finite amount of resources to make Fedora
> better. How much of that cash should be going to expensive lawyers --
> especially if Red Hat already has lawyers who have a strong incentive to
> defend Fedora, should such a defense prove to be necessary?
>
> So the Fedora Foundation didn't seem compelling as a mechanism for
> copyright assignment, either.
>
> THREE: The Fedora Foundation could act as an entity for funding
> Fedora-related activities that Red Hat didn't have great interest in
> funding.
>
> Funny thing, that. We asked some of our closest friends this question:
> "Would you donate to an independent Fedora Foundation?" The answers were
> very interesting, and ran the gamut. Some people were incredibly
> enthusiastic: "We'd love to give money!" Some were neutral: "Thanks, but
> we'd rather contribute code." And some were less enthusiastic: "Red Hat
> is a successful, profitable company. Why are you asking *me* for money?"
>
> Here's another funny thing: if you choose to incorporate as a non-profit
> entity in the United States, then you subject yourself to a number of
> rigorous IRS tax tests. One of these tests is the "public support test."
> If you say you're a public charity, well by golly, you have to prove it.
> If, within four years, you aren't collecting fully one third of your money
> from public sources, then you're not actually a public charity.
>
> People are always shocked when we tell them how many resources Red Hat
> puts into Fedora. If we were to make the Fedora Foundation a truly
> independent entity, then we'd have to track every dime of that expense as
> "in-kind contributions". That means we'd have to track:
>
> * The cost of bandwidth for distributing Fedora to the world;
>
> * Every hour that Red Hat engineers spend working on Fedora, whether that
> is the actual writing of code, release engineering, testing, etc.;
>
> * Legal expenses of running a Foundation;
>
> * Administrative expenses of running a Foundation.
>
> As an intellectual exercise, let's ignore all of those numbers for now
> except for bandwidth. Back in the day, when Red Hat would release a
> distro, we would regularly get angry calls from network admins at big
> datacenters, complaining that we were eating all of their bandwidth. If
> you ever meet any of our IT guys over a beer, be sure to ask them about
> the time we melted a switch at UUNet.
>
> The demand for Fedora is every bit as high, and the March 20 release of
> Fedora Core 5 was no exception. So let's take a conservative guess and
> say that the bandwidth cost for distributing Fedora comes to $1.5 million
> a year. Yes, even though we have BitTorrent trackers and Fedora mirror
> sites worldwide.
>
> That means that a public Fedora Foundation would have to raise $750k in
> public funds -- remember the one-third public support test -- every single
> year, just to pay for *bandwidth*, assuming no growth and no other
> expenses.
>
> So what would happen, under such a scenario, if Red Hat were to decide to
> spend more money on Fedora? Because that's exactly what Red Hat wants to
> do.
>
> There were alternatives to the public charity angle. We could have set up
> a private operating foundation, and we explored this avenue -- but then it
> wouldn't really be an independent entity. It would be a shell. The fact
> that Red Hat would still likely bear the legal risk of Foundation
> decisions, and the complication of raising public funds, made any 501(c)
> less attractive.
>
> In short: the fund raising burden for a truly independent Fedora
> Foundation would be terrifying. So the Fedora Foundation clearly wasn't
> compelling as a fund raising entity -- if anything, it represented an
> impediment to building a better Fedora Project.
>
> FOUR: The Fedora Foundation could provide mechanisms for more community
> participation in key decision-making processes.
>
> >From the day the Fedora Project was started over two years ago, it's been
> our goal to build these mechanisms, Foundation or no Foundation. How
> successful have we been?
>
> Initially, we had some problems. In the last year, though, we've had some
> pretty clear successes. The Fedora Extras project is a good example here.
> When we officially launched it in February 2005 at FUDCon Boston, we put
> together a steering committee that consisted of a pretty even mix of Red
> Hat and community packagers. At FUDCon Germany last summer, we
> strengthened the group with more European members. Earlier this year, we
> successfully handed off leadership of the committee to a community member.
> Red Hat continues to provide logistical and legal support, but Fedora
> Extras policy is determined by the community.
>
> So what happens when the Fedora Extras Steering Committee (also known as
> FESCO) runs into difficulty? Well, they escalate the issue to "the
> Board." And who is "the Board?" It's been the people running the Fedora
> Foundation -- but it's also been the people running the Fedora Project.
> Whenever "the Board" had been asked to make a decision, there's been no
> practical distinction between "Project" and "Foundation."
>
> What *is* vital, whether we're talking about "The Foundation" or "The
> Project," is the actual presence of community members on the board -- but
> more on that later.
>
> FIVE: The Fedora Foundation could serve as a truly independent entity,
> providing the ability for Fedora to grow separately from Red Hat's
> interests.
>
> This is the real heart of the matter. This is what some people want to
> see: a more independent Fedora. This is The Question That Must Be
> Answered.
>
> The simple and honest answer: Red Hat *must* maintain a certain amount of
> control over Fedora decisions, because Red Hat's business model *depends*
> upon Fedora. Red Hat contributes millions of dollars in staff and
> resources to the success of Fedora, and Red Hat also accepts all of the
> legal risk for Fedora. Therefore, Red Hat will sometimes need to make
> tough decisions about Fedora. We won't do it often, and when we do, we
> will discuss the rationale behind such decisions as openly as we can -- as
> we did with the recent Mono decision.
>
> But just because Red Hat has veto power over decisions, it does not follow
> that Red Hat wants to use that power. Nor does it follow that Red Hat
> must make all of the important decisions about Fedora. In fact, effective
> community decision making is one of the most direct measures of Fedora's
> success.
>
> The most important promise about Fedora -- once free, always free -- still
> stands. We aim to set the standard for open source innovation. A truly
> open Fedora Project is what makes that possible.
>
> ===
>
> THE NEW FEDORA PROJECT LEADERSHIP MODEL
>
> Since Fedora's inception two years ago, a diverse global community has
> developed around Fedora -- and, as in any open source project, natural
> leaders have emerged. The time has come to reward some of these leaders
> with the opportunity to define the direction of the Fedora Project at the
> highest level.
>
> Therefore, we've reconstituted the Fedora Project Board to include these
> community leaders directly.
>
> Initially, there are nine board members: five Red Hat members and four
> Fedora community members. This Board is responsible for making all of the
> operational decisions of the greater Fedora project, including decisions
> about budget and strategic direction.
>
> In addition to the nine board members, there is also be a chairman
> appointed by Red Hat, who has veto power over any decision. It's our
> expectation that this veto power will be used infrequently, since we're
> all aware of the negative consequences that could arise from the use of
> such power in a community project.
>
> The chairman of the Fedora Project is Max Spevack. Max has been with Red
> Hat since 2004, previously as a QA engineer and QA team lead for Red Hat
> Network. He is a member of the Fedora Ambassadors steering committee, and
> has been a Linux user since 1999.

Mock chroot question
by Ivan Gyurdiev
I used mock to create a chroot environment for the wine srpm. Then I
moved that chroot elsewhere, wrote some custom scripts for bind mounts,
and now I want to use it to play with the 32-bit wine source from CVS
(on x86_64 machine).
=============
Caveat: the chroot rpm database doesn't seem to play nice with the
chroot rpm command [ different db version? ]
What can I do to fix this issue - I want to update my chroot rpms, and
install new ones [ like yum, and vi ].
rpmdb: Program version 4.3 doesn't match environment version
error: db4 error(-30974) from dbenv->open: DB_VERSION_MISMATCH: Database
environment version mismatch
error: cannot open Packages index using db3 - (-30974)
error: cannot open Packages database in /var/lib/rpm

Fedora Core 5 Test Update: php-5.1.2-5.1
by Joe Orton
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Fedora Test Update Notification
FEDORA-2006-289
2006-04-07
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Product : Fedora Core 5
Name : php
Version : 5.1.2
Release : 5.1
Summary : The PHP HTML-embedded scripting language. (PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor)
Description :
PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. PHP attempts to make it
easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages. PHP also
offers built-in database integration for several commercial and
non-commercial database management systems, so writing a
database-enabled webpage with PHP is fairly simple. The most common
use of PHP coding is probably as a replacement for CGI scripts. The
mod_php module enables the Apache Web server to understand and process
the embedded PHP language in Web pages.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Update Information:
This update includes a fix for use of the "ldap" extension
on 64-bit platforms.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
* Fri Apr 7 2006 Joe Orton <jorton(a)redhat.com> 5.1.2-5.1
