Fedora Core is intended to be a logical upgrade path for previous users of Red Hat Linux whose needs are consistent with the objectives of the Fedora Project. It is a return to Red Hat's roots; 2-3 releases per year, and freely-available downloads that can be called by name even when media containing those bits are sold by third parties (within the constraints of trademark guidelines).
Fedora 是一個開放的、創新的、前瞻性的作業系統和平臺，基於 Linux。它允許任何人自由地使用、修改和重發佈，無論現在還是將來。它由一個強大的社群開發，這個社群的成員以自己的不懈努力，提供並維護自由、開放源碼的軟體和開放的標準。 Fedora 項目由 Fedora 基金會管理和控制，得到了 Red Hat, Inc. 的支持。Fedora 10的開發代號為“Cambridge”.此代號正是演進到Fedora Core 1之前的最後一版Red Hat Linux開發代號,至此Fedora項目完成一個迴圈,並以“Cambridge”作為紀念.
