Just my 0.02 USD, I think people are more afraid of there being a Red
Hat bias, and there is this odd hyper awareness that some people are
Red Hat and some people are not.  I think Red Hat has received pretty
good confidences and trust from the community so far.  Furthermore,
many of the 'Red Hat' people are really as much Fedora as they are Red
Hat.  I think people recognize this more than we might think.

(Yes, that sentence is a contradiction.)
