==Fedora Linux== {{Main article|Fedora Linux}} Red Hat Linux was originally developed exclusively inside Red Hat, with the only feedback from users coming through bug reports and contributions to the included software packages β not contributions to the distribution as such. This was changed in late 2003 when Red Hat Linux merged with the [[Virtual community|community]]-based [[Fedora Project]]. The new plan was to draw most of the codebase from Fedora Linux when creating new Red Hat Enterprise Linux distributions. Fedora Linux replaced the original Red Hat Linux download and retail version. The model is similar to the relationship between [[Netscape Communicator]] and [[Mozilla]], or [[StarOffice]] and [[OpenOffice.org]], although in this case the resulting commercial product was also fully [[free software]].
