Now, I have a few questions:

1. was RH ever going to ask/consult/tell us about
fedoraproject.org.cn /before/ its inception? 

I find this lack of communication not positive

2. Is the content there going to be localised? Last I checked, RH
Beijing was hiring ~80 staff (earlier this year), so how important is
RHEL/Fedora there?

3. Competition from Sun Wah Linux and Red Flag linux (I think they're
now a fedora/chinese spinoff) is rife. Thoughts?
