Fedora 11: What do we expect?

[Ashiqur Rahman Angel]

I didnt know this, Fedora's objective is, to make proprietary software
installation difficult. If this is, then I am sorry for the mail, I dont
have anything to say.

But as far as I know, this is not the Fedora's objective as refer to
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Overview.

However, thanks to Thorsten Leemhuis, for his wonderful reply. Thanks for
the good news. Atleast I can hope, soon we will get good solutions of this
issues.

I am going to join RPM Fusion list.

Thanks again.
