...and it is completely normal and even useful situation. It is kinda 
opposition. A people system without any opposition is dictatorship.

Former "Red Hat Linux" was very popular, and had become a much more 
wider than just a RH project. There are people which use RH/Fedora 
themselves -- ie. not buying some support, and not planning to buy such 
a support at all. Some of those people are here.

The question is: Is it suitable to have a contributor in Fedora,  whose 
activity never will bring direct money for RH? Just patches, testing 
(including production environments) etc. only? What to do if he see that 
something goes wrong? Just answer him, that he should leave?
