What Follows a Fedora Linux Miracle?

"The Fedora naming process is like no other. Community members suggest and vote on names, there is no benevolent dictator that chooses these names. The only catch is that the name needs to somehow/somewhat be related to the previous release name."

Fedora on Raspberry Pi
Rahul Sundaram posted[1] a handful of articles about Fedora on Raspberry Pi:

There are over 16,000 software packages available from the Fedora ARM repositories which can be easily installed using the Internet to customize your system to meet your needs and interests (again, using either command-line or graphical tools).'"
