A Software Populist Who Doesn't Do Windows (New York Times)
Canonical is leveraging a large pool of unpaid labor in the Ubuntu community in an effort to create a sustainable business.
Just like Red Hat, de facto managing Fedora, largely for the purposes of making a beta for RHEL (in spite of all the smoke and mirrors in an attempt to make Fedora appear as an "indenpendent" distro).
(Disclaimer: I use Fedora and contribute to it. My frustration is with the freewheeling attitude which comes to non-QA'd updates that break systems. The likelihood of this happening on RHEL is much lower, and I sincerely wish Red Hat would apply the RHEL QA process to Fedora).
