Yes it did. And basicly its the RH guys doing this. I was in Fedora since
it started, and running one of the main rsync servers for the project. Its
been having nice support.

No. But its a merger with a lot of the regular RH things for sure, just
install the latest gratest and have a look on the look and feel. I think
you wont notice much difference anyway compared to RH.
