All of this isn't necessarily to be taken as gospel, however it does
illustrate well the point some of 'us' have been trying to make .. lets
not forget about the users! :-)
Agreed, let us not forget about the open source users. Let's not let the
people who want to use binary-only proprietary extension spoil the
distribution for those that don't. On top of which, the first article
you cite seems to indicate that the niche you're worried about is
already nicely filled by Ubuntu. There doesn't seem to be much
reason for Fedora to become just another Ubuntu.
