New responsibilities
He wasn&#x27;t just the Fedora packager of Totem. I am pretty sure he was the upstream Totem maintainer. I had no idea how he managed to maintain so many other packages as well! And apparently on 10% of his work time.<p>Also, it&#x27;s before my time but Red Hat were once unpopular for &quot;killing the desktop&quot;, by pivoting from Red Hat Linux to Red Hat Enterprise Linux.<p>Of course, it turns out that <i>since then</i> they did substantial desktop work, hiring developers of GNOME etc., and sponsoring Fedora. It&#x27;s a shame they&#x27;re now cutting that desktop work for real this time.
