His name is 'slashdot', what did you expect?
Not that I think the GNOME OS is such a stellar idea but it's not too stupid either. It'll probably be Fedora based, hope that won't piss off any more people :D

I hope and expect that some of the technologies driven by GNOME make their way into Fedora. Improving the quality of what we make in GNOME is the entire point of the effort.
And just speaking for myself, I will avoid doing anything in GNOME that would harm our ability to be used in larger software collections. For example, I designed the build system to *not* have any duplicate metadata, and I want things like the devel/runtime split to be standardized upstream, so they can be consumed by all of RPM spec files, debian/rules, bitbake recipes, etc.
