I agree with Marco, no distro-wars, pretty, please. Where I sit,
Ubuntu's advantages have decreased, rather than increased over the last
couple years. Even Mark Shuttleworth, when I last chatted with him
early this year, said it didn't make a significant difference.

Marco -
I think this is one of the important questions we should be discussing
in the near term. I'm not advocating either for or against it, but
simply that it is something we should consider seriously. That
includes identifying all the consequences/implications of rebasing on
F10,

If not, then you're going to be basing on a Fedora release which will be
EOL'd[1] very soon after the OLPC release...

We went through this early on in the development of the OLPC software
stack. It became clear that we were not far enough along to be able to
settle in on RHEL. Maybe we'll be at that point after another turn or
two of the crank. Maybe the XS will be there sooner. But too much is
in flux.

Hi,
gtk 2.14 has some good stuff, would be nice to start to rebase on
F10 ASAP so we don't have so much stress as with the F8 rebase.
Once we decide to do this, we'll need to talk about who would do it --
for the F7 rebase we had J5, and then Dennis for F9, and it's not clear
who could

Yeah - the Fedora lifecycle does not end up being a good fit for us.
There is no clear (supported) path to go from a Fedora (bleeding
edge) release to a LTS path with RHEL or CentOS.
Is there any hints as to how that could be
