No. I was thinking specifically of FC1. Since all of the succeeding
Fedora releases build on each other, they are all, in that sense derived
from RHEL and RH9. Of course, you could claim that everything for FC1
was conjured into existence independently, which would give a whole new
meaning to "installation wizard".
What Jess told you is FC1 = RHL10
The RHEL releases are branches of the RHL/FC/F trunk (once could say
dead branches as they are rebased from the free line periodically), and
Fedora is certainly not derived from them
