[[User:Jspaleta|Jef Spaleta]] continued[4] his across-the-intertubes discussion with Mark Shuttleworth about Canonical's Launchpad being closed source, and talked about his motivations behind contributing to Fedora: "I have never received a paycheck from Red Hat in any capacity...Making sure companies which proclaim to be open source advocates are actually ‘walking the walk’ is on my personal agenda." In another post, Jef added[5] the statistic "2 out of the top 3 'ideas' on Ubuntu's brainstorm this week are requests to take features from the Fedora Feature process for Fedora 10 and port them to Ubuntu". Along a similar line of thinking to the discussion about Launchpad (but not directly related to Ubuntu or Fedora, at least by name), he discussed[6] "How important is opening sourcing in the cloud?"
