Fedora's Paul Frields: Leadership, trust, fail early and often

,----[ Quote ]
| Paul works for Red Hat and is currently the 
| Fedora Project Leader and chairman of the 
| Fedora Project Board. It's no coincidence 
| that our chat with Paul was posted on the day 
| that Fedora 13 was released. But I can't 
| express how excited I was when I saw his 
| responses to the interview questions drop 
| into my inbox. Then I read the email. Twice. 
| When Paul started talking about overcoming 
| failure, curating leadership, and fostering 
| community participation, I was ecstatic. I 
| think you will be too.

Ubuntu vs. Fedora: The Latest Versions Square Off

,----[ Quote ]
| Ubuntu regularly claims to be the most
| popular Linux distribution. But, if so,
| Fedora is a competitive second. Both have
| thriving communities and are a major
| source of free and open source software
| innovation.
|
| Regularly, you can read on mailing lists
| of users having grown discontented with
| one and deciding to migrate to the other.
| In many users' minds, each is an
| alternative to the other.
|
| [...]
|
| Both Fedora and Ubuntu are GNOME-centered
| distributions, with KDE, Xfce, and other
| desktops as alternatives. Fedora has
| included fresh art for each new release
| for several years now, so its wallpaper
| compares favorably with Ubuntu's much-
| discussed new color-coded scheme.

The five best things coming in Fedora 13 Linux

,----[ Quote ]
| When Fedora 13, Goddard, is released on
| May 25, it's not going to be your usual
| Fedora Linux release. In the past, Fedora
| has been seen as a great Linux
| distribution for Linux experts. Paul W.
| Frields, the Fedora Project leader, told
| me though that this release is more new-
| user-friendly and that is no longer just
| for experienced Linux users. Based on my
| early look at this Red Hat community Linux
| distribution, I agree.
|
| You will be able to see it for yourself
| soon. After several delays, Frields has no
| doubt that this time, the Fedora final
| will be available for download soon.
| Frields explained to me that the delays
| were because Fedora has adopted much more
| "detailed and fleshed-out release
| criteria. In the past, we would release
| releases when it felt right. Now, we have
| criteria that make the process both more
| transparent to the community and provide
| strong release guidelines."
