[luau] Fedora Test 3

[Hawaii Linux Institute]

As I mentioned in my previous posts, Red Hat as we know it will stop at 
version 9.  Thereafter, it will be merged into (and called) the Fedora 
project (which was "[f]ounded December 2002 by University of Hawaii 
Computer Science student Warren Togami"; see, http://www.fedora.us/ ).  
NewsForge has an interview of Warren re the history of the Fedora project.

As a superset of the old Red Hat Linux, Fedora is going to become the 
most visible Linux distro.  Red Hat will continue to sell the 
"enterprise edition" of Red Hat Linux (@$2,499 per copy), which will be 
based on the matured version of Fedora.

As far as I am concerned, the most important matter is that Fedora 
originated from Hawaii.  Before this happened, I was planning to try 
Libranet.  But now, NAH!  We will try to make Fedora better.

BTW, just in case anyone failed to notice, the Israeli Ministry of 
Commerce has suspended all governmental contracts with Microsoft, and 
indicated that the ban will last throughout 2004.  
http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/4/33365.html .  I feel sad, as our 
own government seems to think the Microsoft money (in the form of direct 
or indirect campaign contributions) is more important than our homeland 
security.
