If you agree with the goal, then the burden is not on some large vendor to
be beating down on our door but for us within Fedora to reach out as much as
possible to other vendors and get them to participate.  I see that already
happening and would like to continue to see it moving forward to a point
where as much as our infrastructure is hosted outside of Red Hat systems as
possible.
