An overdue post on Fedora's target audience [LWN.net]

Robyn Bergeron shares some thoughts on Fedora's target audience. "But there is no man behind the curtain at Fedora. The transparent, community-oriented nature of Fedora obviously ensure that this happens. Fedora has a mission, and Values, and a fabulous community, but we have no TARGET AUDIENCE specifically defined, and we have no GOALS, at least as far as a list of things we wanted to accomplish in the short term, or long term, to get us from point A, to point B... or even a vague definition of where we are right now (point A), and what Point B might be. In essence, right now, Fedora's goal is to "be the best that we can be," in order to address a target audience that we are currently, I suspect, somewhat in the dark about the current state of, and completely undefined as to who we would like that audience to be in the future."
