That doesn't matter much. Ubuntu is where the users are.

For me that question is interesting because selling Fedora is what I do
at FLOSS-events as a Fedora ambassador and 'what is the difference to
ubuntu' is the number one question.

This should certainly not affect the direction we're taking with Fedora
as it's marketing and marketing needs to market whatever is there - but
I still find the question interesting.
