No, WE don't. We need to enable THEM to be able to do it. We want
variants of Fedora made right? Fedora is your free base from which to
build wonderful and great things (like RHEL). So you want CCRMA type
stuff, great! Spin a release with CCRMA modules and whatever other
software you need. Call it Based on Fedora or whatever. Don't pollute
the Free base with hacky things like kernel modules. Make it easier for
folks to take the free Fedora base and run with it, making their own
wonderful variants for their wonderful needs. The things that make
sense to pull into the base, do it! The things that don't, well, don't!
Fair enough, Jesse. Let me rephrase -- whatever else we do or don't do,
we need to enable people to do cool stuff with Fedora, not be an
impediment to them doing it.
Insert all the "as long as it's FOSS, etc." stuff here.
I think there needs to be a place for kernel modules somewhere in the
"Fedora Universe", that's all I'm saying.
