Fedora Interview

Posted by Michael Larabel on March 18, 2006

With the launch of Fedora Core 5 quickly approaching (2 days!), we have managed to snag a few minutes of Greg DeKoenigsberg's time to answer some Fedora related questions and other happenings going on at the Fedora Project. For Fedora and Linux users, this interview should be especially interesting.

As Chris Blizzard and I rode around Delhi during our visit to FUDCon India, Chris said to me, "what if open source is just a side effect of people wanting to work together?" I think that this was a profound observation. To me, it's one of the most important reasons for having FUDCons. IRC is great, but having a beer with somebody -- or even having somebody tell you off to your face -- is an irreplaceable personal experience, and one that's central to building lasting communities.
