[$] Friction in Fedora over AI developer desktop initiative

Post Syndicated from jzb original https://lwn.net/Articles/1071949/

A push by Red Hat employees to create a Fedora “AI Developer
Desktop” with support for out-of-tree kernel drivers and AI toolkits
has been met with objections from some long-time members of the Fedora
community. After more than a month of sometimes heated discussion, the
Fedora
Council
had voted
to approve the initiative; however, a last-minute change to vote against the
proposal by council member Justin Wheeler has (at least temporarily)
sent it back to the drawing board.
