"Linux Bible, 2008 Edition: Boot up to Ubuntu, Fedora, KNOPPIX, Debian, openSUSE, and 11 Other Distributions"


Today, with the different free (Fedora) and subscription-based (RHEL) Linuxes from Red Hat, some
of the same basic advantages hold true??”if you are a bit more adventurous. Because Red Hat Linux
is such a successful operating system, many who have developed skills in using and deploying Red
Hat Linux have rallied to support Fedora in areas where Red Hat, Inc. has bowed out. The following
sections explore some of those support efforts.
Growing Community Support for Fedora
Despite some confusion about the future and direction of the Fedora Project, new initiatives and
Web sites have popped up to support Fedora. Two of the best new official assets of the Fedora
Project are FedoraProject.org (which is transitioning to become the official Fedora Project site) and
FedoraForum.org (which has been recognized as the official end-user forum of choice).
FedoraProject.org is the site for official information about schedules, goals, and initiatives that
make up the Fedora Project. If you want to become involved in Fedora-related projects, such as
Ambassadors, Marketing, Live CD, or Documentation, FedoraProject.org is the focal point for
pursuing those initiatives.
FedoraForum.org features news, galleries, and (as you might guess) forums for sharing questions
and information about Fedora.
