Interesting.  I remember reading on fedora.redhat.com (right after the
name change from the Red Hat Linux Project to Fedora) that Red Hat was
aware of this other project named Fedora and that Red Hat had gotten
permission from them to use the Fedora name (and perhaps trademark it as
well?).  I guess things hadn't gone quite so smoothly after all...
