I have respect for ER but I disagree with a lot of what he says/does.
I'm glad that *Fedora* isn't whoring itself to proprietary media. That
needs to be solved not at the distribution level, but at the plugin
level.

Fedora + Extras should never result in software that is not open being
installed on a system. The user needs to intentionally get that software
if the user wants it.

I do think rpm should be statically linked.

As much as I respect ESR, I disagree with him on a lot of things -
including the manner in which he left.

I hope he enjoys ubuntu.
