Hi

At first glance it seems to be a bit of a odd outlook to consider Fedora 
as a competition to Sun but there comparisons are really directed 
between opensolaris where the current project requires Sun employees to 
commit anything into the distribution vs the direction of Fedora in 
merging core and extras. A related blog is

Some interesting quotes from
http://www.itwire.com.au/content/view/12616/1090/

"With its release of Fedora 7.0 last week, Red Hat has signalled that it 
is acutely aware of the threat that Sun could pose to its market share 
in the years ahead."

"...Red Hat has, thus far, not been half as bureaucratic in this area 
but with the release of Fedora 7.0, the company has gone the extra step"

"..Another change in Red Hat's approach has been in its attitude to the 
KDE project"
