I agree to Robert and Henrique's views. At foss. in event Rahul Sundaram 
talked about Freedom to fork as well. The title of the talk was "freedom 
is a feature" and it delivered the message to the attendees that Fedora 
features freedom. Reference - 
http://foss.in/2007/register/speakers/talkdetailspub.php?talkid=303

There was also a story on Slashdot recently in which people discussed 
why RH is tolerating CentOS. Many of them agreed that RH does not look 
at CentOS as a competitor at all. As a Fedora ambassador I don't think I 
should refrain from recommending CentOS for those who can't afford RHEL.
