Apropos (in a tangential way) our discussion today. And as a result of some

It makes it clear that the spins process is serious and f'real and it will
test how well our processes work.
If nothing else, this is a very worthwhile "what-if" thought-experiment. It
would help highlight process assumptions and associated pain-points, to help
pave the way for other successful derivatives/spins.
Fedora's spin process has been haphazardly taking baby steps in that direction
over the past couple of releases, and the kde-sig will continue to work
earnestly with this now-clear goal in mind. We've also garnered commitments
from our own and upstream kde developers to help work through any
implementation or technical details required.
This is probably naive of me, but besides changing the link on the
get-fedora page to KDE or XFCE... What else would there be?
When all is said and done, that is how you'd pull the trigger to make it
happen, sure.
Getting there will involve some significant work to do it right. I have
some ideas, and will happily to share them... but I'd prefer not to
derail the conversation with them at this point.
