My point is that it simply does not matter for the current discussion. 
All the talk about @redhat.com ids and official positions is just hand 
waving and I refuse to get into that game.

1) It not a product at all from Red Hat or otherwise. It is available as 
ISO images for download and never sold.

2) As one measure, Fedora has more packages maintained by folks outside 
of Red Hat folks than inside it and a lot of extras packages are 
maintained by Red Hat folks in their own interest. That is even ignoring 
translation, documentation etc.
