+[Fedora | http://www.fedora.us] was a community project to build high-quality 3rd party [RPM]s for RedHatLinux. They packaged a lot of stuff that RedHat wouldn 't, couldn 't, or didn't. When Red Hat decided to become more community based to separate themselves from their commercial RedHatEnterpriseLinux distribution, they merged with the Fedora Linux Project to become the FedoraProject. The [old Fedora Linux Project website | http ://www.fedora.us/] [2] is is now the home of the FedoraExtras project.
