Firstly Red Hat is not Fedora - Red Hat is a SEC listed business whose
primary job is making shareholders and customers happy by generating a
regular profit.

Fedora is whatever the community makes it - but if you want to make it
something then you have to actually go *do* something rather than talk
about how it should be done.

The Debian ARM port to one of the older Android tablets was I believe a
one person job, a one person *doing* not *talking* job.
