I don't think any of these are blockers for the most important user experience improvements that desktop could use from the base OS. On the other hand, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=488968 is a blocker for something that would really improve desktop experience, and in that bug that's desktop trying to work within the system. And you gave a lot of good advice there, thanks! What we need is to just be able to execute better on building on top of the current system. A lot of the things we want for desktop (example: writing an app, deploying it, and allowing users to install it should be way, way easier than it is now) has components that cross development, packagekit, desktop application menu, fedora. And given that the current "system" (packages basically) does solve a lot of hard problems, it makes sense to build on what we have than replace it. _______________________________________________ fedora-advisory-board mailing list fedora-advisory-board@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-advisory-board
