Comments on: Red Hat bands with open-source allies

The Linux leader will sell partners' open-source software, sharing revenue and fueling competition with proprietary rivals.

The-road-ahead looks good for RedHat, but...

I (think i'm not alone on this) would like to see that Fedora merged into RedHat RHEL, rename it something like RedHat RHEL Beta, (look Google for inspirations, heck i've been using Gmail-beta ever since it was launched.) this way, at least it will give new users (kids that Ubuntu is attracting now) a name recognition right away. and a message that says, "I am RedHat RHEL Beta, you better get to know me now, because I am going to be next-RHEL, and that will help you landing your next job.

and also..

it's confusing that way, when people speak about Fedora they rarely mention RedHat, the next guy who hears Fedora 1st time would think of it as just another distro, and would go with distros which currently has more buzz. and what about CentOS? comeooon guys at RedHat, I am sure RedHat can-get (and it needs) better karma by distributing RHEL for free, instead of CentOS doing that without even giving some credit.

"FEZ"

Cross a red hat with a fedora and you get a "fez". It would be a whole lot easier to pronounce, too...
