You have the cause and affect mixed up. :-) The reason for Fedora is *not*
to stop selling boxed products -- it is to allow open source development to
proceed at its more normal (faster) pace. Tying open source development to
a boxed product (which needs to have a certain shelf life) slowed things
down.
Maybe, but the communication provided by RH is not very clear for me, sorry
(and I did read the redhat sites and the one dedicated to fedora)
