I think you should eat some more crow, [just don't eat your shorts for
God's sake], Fedora was very good from the start, Core1 was very good
and  Core2 is just the natural progression.

It's good to hear you admit that, [or anyone that would admit it]. 
I think it's  a good situation RedHat has created.  They have the
truly opensource community oriented Fedora release, and they have a
totally separate enterprise edition, just a very good way of doing
business and providing software for the community - for consumers /
hackers, and business alike.  I thought it was an ok idea from the
start and think it's a very good idea now.  There's no real easy way
to do what they'er doing, but I think they've chosen a good plan.
(It's a complicated situation to give away something to one group of
people and then turn around and sell it to another, and I think that's
the reason they felt they needed to make the change, there needed to
be a difference with a distinction.)
