Distribution quote of the week
1) Make Fedora redundant (in a good way). Several of my best bosses I
have ever had all seemed to have the same philosophy of life: A
'system administrator/developer/SCM manager/etc's' primary goal was to
make their-selves redundant as quickly as possible. This was for 3

There IS "life after work"!

Probably it's a reference to xkcd, which has raptors as one of the running themes. E.g.
