This week, in another part of FOSS, Fedora finds itself in a trap, fueled in part by 'what if' extreme remarks by some who post here, to be 'more friendly' to users who will not learn the Unix ways of PATH. If Fedora proceeds that way, it is at risk of being not Unix0like any more. It would lose parts of the aspects which make Fedora a proving ground for Enterprise distributions. Gentoo, and Ubuntu can do that just fine already. If it goes that way, Fedora commits suicide.
Do you think a unix-like OS distribution is only viable if it propagates the flavor wars with incompatible differences with other distributions? I guess that does follow a long tradition...
