Another update on Fedora infrastructure
As much speculation we're doing here (and presumably elsewhere on Fedora related forums), it likely doesn't compare to the speculation and rumor milling taking place over the iPhone troubles or the Mobile Me troubles.
Of course, when dealing with proprietary, closed-source hardware and software that malfunctions, all the vendor can do is to start handing out service credits and other freebies to keep customers happy. One article mentioned something similar to the idea that Apple can't disclose squat on the nature of the service troubles since that might open up a flood of class-action lawsuits.
Perhaps I'm comparing apples to oranges here (no pun intended), but certainly developers' lives in Fedoraville aren't as bad right now as those in Cupertino.
