Nice! Fedora was one of the first distros I used all those years ago, before switching to openSUSE and later Ubuntu/Debian.
I didn't realise that when I started using it in high school, it was still a relatively young distro (2006-7)!
I did expect there to be a bit more about the history and development in the article though. After the heading "A history lesson" I was expecting it to trace through some major changes in the past 15 years.
- vetinari 8y agoFedora Core had a history as Redhat Linux (not Redhat Enterprise Linux), with nine major releases. I left rpm based distributions with FC1 (only to return in the 20-something releases).
- mattdm 8y agoYou know, the Wikipedia page for Fedora could really use some help. Both https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora_(operating_system) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora_(operating_system) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora_Project https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fedora_Project There _is_ a lot of interesting history, both technical and in the project structure and culture. I'd update the page myself, but, you know. :)
