In my opinion, even closing the KB by Red Hat, I mean you need to login
to access the articles, was and is not good. If not open source, Linux
and GNU, probably there would not be Red Hat today. Saying that they
created Fedora to give something back to community would not be
"politically" correct too, I think. Without community and open source
there would not be Fedora too.
I think they should try to make it even more open rather that closing it
further.
More knowledge you can get about the product, more likely you would go
for it, I think. If there is a bug, someone will find it anyway sooner
or later, so I think it is better to say "yes, we know and we work on
it" and even "maybe you can even help us to fix it quicker" rather than
pretend that "we did not know" when competition fixes that already.
