[Fedora-marketing-list] Ubuntu Release Party in Beijing, what about Fedora?

by Leo

On the second of Nov. 2006, Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth will be in Beijing to attend the Ubuntu Edgy EFT release Party. He will give a talk to encourage more Chinese to use Ubuntu. If I remember right, RHAT has an office in Beijing. Are those guys doing anything? Regards, -- Leo

[Fedora-marketing-list] Fedora Core 6: Kneel before Zod!

by Rahul Sundaram

Hi "Fedora Core 6, codenamed Zod, was released on October 24 for x86, PowerPC, and AMD64 systems. With a number of improvements over its predecessors, this is an impressive release, if you're willing to overlook a couple of installer bugs." http://distrocenter.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/11/03/1858255 Rahul

[Fedora-marketing-list] Linux article

by Marc Wiriadisastra

Hey All just found this interesting article. http://blogs.zdnet.com/hardware/index.php?p=133 Its a personal opinion has some critique in it which is understandable but a more 'open' view than the one sided one we got the other day. Not related to FC-6 but to linux in general. I'm hoping the article is partly true in the sense that the 'time' is right to increase market share. Hopefully the masses will leave Microsoft to force companies to provide support to linux finally. Regards, Marc
