The goal of The Fedora Project is to work with the Linux community to build one, general purpose operating system exclusively from free software.
The development is in a public forum. The project will be based on the time to produce releases of Fedora Core about 2-3 times a year with a release schedule. The engineering team of Red Hat will continue to participate in building Fedora Core and invite and encourage more participation from outside is possible in Red Hat Linux. By using this more open process, Red Hat hopes to provide an operating system which uses practical development of free software and is more appealing to the open source community.
