It all depends on how you define "care about Fedora." If by "care
about Fedora" you mean FFmpeg builds and runs on fedora then yes we do
care about Fedora. In fact FFmpeg builds and runs on Fedora better
than Windows whose user base dwarves that of Fedora. If by "care about
Fedora" you mean will bend over backwards to arbitrary Fedora policies
to be included in their software distribution then, while I can't
speak for everyone, I don't "care" about Fedora. By that definition I
also don't care about Windows.
