Fedora Core Support forum?
So I just noticed the title on the top bar at forums.fedoraforum.org says Fedora "Core" support forum, but isn't it just Fedora now?
I'm not sayin, I'm just sayin.

That is a part of the site's code that is under the control of Ewdi, but since his time is really limited due to his business and health issues, he has had no time to correct it.
Patience its needed as sometime he will get around it  ...

Fedora Complete? Thought it represent Fedora Core and a number since good ole Fedora Core 1, hence fc1 & beyond.
Tell Ewdi get well.

There were Fedora Core until the sixth release. Starting from Fedora 7 (first release with both merged core and extras repository), "fc" stands for a symbolic "Fedora Complete" .

Shouldn't it be "Fedora Incomplete ?" I mean they push 100MB of changes my way every few days.
.fi10 has a nice ring as suffixes go.
