Or: I Went to Read This Community Member’s Blog. What She Wrote about RHEL and Fedora Blew me Away!

Sorry about the clickbaitism. But seriously, after returning from Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 release festivities this evening I planned to write a blog to the Fedora community about how RHEL and Fedora are intertwined. How Fedora is the cradle of platform innovation that Red Hat relies on to build RHEL and thus to serve as a foundation for many other products. How the community helps select and cultivate technology and prevent Red Hat from investing a ton of resources to make something no one wants.

Then I saw that Robyn Bergeron has already written everything to be said. Which illustrates several points:

  1. Properly empowered, motivated, and ambitious community is faster than individual effort.
  2. Robyn is awesome.
  3. There is no post about Fedora into which we can’t somehow reference His Meatiness.

Need I say more? No. Go read Robyn’s post if you haven’t already. [Mic drop]
