What if somebody started a Linux distribution and nobody downloaded it?

I don't think that there is a problem with being a beta release of Redhat, but I don't think that is what actually Fedora realy wants.

Sure a few years ago Fedora would be considured kick-ass in terms of it's structure and such, but I think that with Ubuntu people's expectations have risen. So now you have situation were people are migrating away from Fedora instead of TO Fedora. These users, the community, is a absolute nessicity for creating a top-notch Linux distro.
