Now this is the second time that it's assumed that I'm acting out of some kind off emotional behaviour because what was revealed by a concerned community member on the Fedora test list [1] regarding Fusion Linux. The first one [2] I could have responded with equal observation and assumption on certain person responses but I chose not to steep to that level and and aid in steering this conversation away from the underlying problem or the questions I was directing the board with. Now you may believe that I am that simple and narrow minded and i'm acting on some kind of emotional outburst but I assure you I am not.. I actually did bother to put me in the Fusion remix maintainer shoes retrace his step which revealed to me two underlying problems we have one was regarding remixes and the other one is not. And so it can be clear this is not about any specific unofficial remixes but unofficial remixes in general and please refrain from claiming that this is not an issue or is an issue ( yes that includes me as well ) nor that this benefits the community or does not benefit community ( again yes that includes me as well ) as things are now we have absolutely now way of telling that since there is no distinction made between the official release vs unofficial remixes heck for all we now there could be hundreds of remixes out there and we might even owe half of all Fedora measured success to one of those remixes yes it's unlikely but there well could be so the extend of the problem cant be reliable measured nor the benefits they have or do not have for the community. That data simply does not exist at this point in time.
