I don't want to go too far down this road without some real thought put behind 
the branding and trademark issues.  Just building from Fedora sources isn't 
enough, what if I rebuilt everything with the Intel compiler, or with 
funroll-loops or whatever other crack I wanted to do?  Should I still call it 
Fedora?  I'm leaning toward no.  I strongly think that if we go down this 
route its going to need to at LEAST be 'built from unmodified Fedora sources 
by unmodified Fedora tools' before you can call it 'Fedora'.
