"Reign?"

Just went to download a Fedora ISO and I'm struck once again by how
peculiar the Fedora homepage has become:

http://fedoraproject.org/
  (or screenshot: http://www.annexia.org/tmp/fedora.png)

What does the word "Reign" have to do with a Linux distro?  If I knew
nothing about Fedora, what impression would I get from this page?

Now compare it to the Ubuntu home page:

http://www.ubuntu.com/
  (or screenshot: http://www.annexia.org/tmp/ubuntu.png)

This clearly states what Ubuntu does, what benefits it has, and it's
immediately obvious how to download it.

Rich.
