> Red Hat has a good record of control various upstreams by implanting their employees, throwing whatever shit they come up into Fedora and probably fixing some problems when RHEL release is close (for example GNOME Classic mode).

Or to put it another way -- "The people who do the actual work get to decide the direction a project takes."

You are right, their great leadership left us a 0.10 (GNOME3 0.10) desktop after many many years of hope.

If you count contribution by counting number of commits, I'm sure that Red Hat should be the "king".

But what kind of product we have at the end of day?
