Bert Desmet forwarded<ref>http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/marketing/2010-November/013544.html</ref> a Dutch article on Fedora 14 from Tweakers.net, the largest Dutch technology site:
"...Fedora clearly has its fans. And, if you work on Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) development, it's a really wise idea to keep a copy of Fedora on hand so you can see RHEL's future."


"De Fedora-ontwikkelgemeenschap heeft de release van Fedora 14, ook bekend als Laughlin, aangekondigd. In de gebruikersinterface zijn slechts kleine wijzigingen doorgevoerd, maar de tools voor ontwikkelaars zijn flink verbeterd."

Roughly translated in English the title is "Fedora 14 mainly offers new tools for developers."
