Anybody who has had extensive dealings with lawyers knows that they tend to err on the side of caution at any time. When a publicly traded company is involved, that's even more true. Whether Red Hat and Fedora could have acted differently is a debatable point. But that Red Hat acted as it did is not surprising. Just because a corporation is open source, it doesn't stop being a corporation. -- Bruce Byfield 604-421-7177 Burnaby, BC, Canada web: http://members.axion.net/~bbyfield blog: http://brucebyfield.wordpress.com/ -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@redhat.com To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
