I am puzzled.

Are they saying that they have designed a piece of software that will run on ONLY one distribution of Linux? If so, they must be barking mad.

No, the software is made for all distributions. But instead of collecting them, and trying to set them up, manually (different distributions have different version kernel and libraries), the author has done the job. He liked fedora, so he did all the "dirty" stuff (setting up and configuring), and there you have a pre-set, working distribution. No need to find software and tune it by yourself.

I am very glad. It looks like a very useful item.
