Segment Two- RedHat and The Desktop Dilema– Or
how the timing of the Fedora release has turned out to “much a do
about nothing”

We will be joined tonight by Jeremy Hogan the
Senior Community Relations Manager for Red Hat. He will be
among other issues, be talking about the rather harsh judgements
directed at Red Hat because of the recent announcement about the
Red Hat Desktop.

Last week on The Linux Daily one of our staff presented an
editorial in opposition to the editorial by our friend Joe Barr, at
Newsforge. We love Joe but do not always agree with everything he
says, and his judgement of the release of the Red Hat Desktop was
one such judgement. Rather than bouncing flames back and forth, we
dscided to invite a representative from Red Hat to join us and give
the Red Hat perspective.

Jeremy’s technology career spans over ten years, from commercial
production in Los Angeles, to consulting for Fortune 500 companies
such as Xerox, Kodak and EDS before joining Red Hat.

Jeremy has worked for Red Hat the better part of four years (the
worse part was spent selling “Maps to the Stars’ Homes” in the
greater Buffalo metropolitan area). Jeremy began his career at Red
Hat running the first installation support hot line from it’s
launch with Red Hat Linux 6.0, through 7.1, when he briefly joined
CollabNet as Manager, Technical Support. Jeremy rejoined Red Hat to
help build out the enterprise support offering, working with such
clients as Amazon, AOL, HP, Pixar, Penguin Computing and SGI.

Being 50% evangelist, 50% propagandist, and 50% full of crap,
Jeremy is responsible for Red Hat’s Community Relations program. He
was also the diabolical mastermind and fearless leader of Red Hat
Road Tour 2002. Being a stereotypical Gemini, he is both creative
and logical. Yin and Yang, the light within the dark within the
light. Or so he says. This will, if nothing else be
interesting.
