Red Hat Linux is evidently a thing of the past
Reading through <
http://fedora.redhat.com> and it's many various pages,
it's not inherently obvious the changes that are under way at Red Hat.
There has been a fair amount of discussion on the shrike-list (Red Hat 9
mail list) <
https://www.redhat.com/archives/shrike-list> and perhaps I
am a bit slow on the uptake but I can see for myself, Debian is looking
better all the time.
I think a post by Jesse Keating summed it up very well...

I am not going to suggest that Red Hat is dropped from InstallFest - and
time will tell how this all is going to shake out but there are some
things evident...
Red Hat Linux, Workstation/Professional which tended to retail for
$59/$179 are not going to be offered in stores for the next version.
Red Hat will apparently create/maintain the core distribution but the
rest of the stuff will apparently be community maintained.
Think I am going to set up Debian for the first time this weekend
;-)
