That sounds like something with which I'd be very interested in being
involved. Part of that interest is based on my perception that Red Hat
Magazine does a great job of transmitting information from the original
sources so well, for example the articles on SELinux[1] and Func and
Cobbler[2]. RHM is also a useful one-stop-shop for information from Red
Hat events[3].  Material "from the horse's mouth" is hard to get hold of
and is one of RHM's strengths. Do you think this could continue with a
re-jigged RHM?

Also, do you see any role for Fedora Weekly News?
