I think I already listed a couple of very concrete items in the "Request: please consider clarifying the project's position on Spins" thread. In order to start a more constructive discussion I'm copying them over from the old thread: * Allow the spins to define their own target audience. * Allow the spins to ship the software they need for their use case. * Do not block spins or alike with the TLA. * Give the spins some more (I'm not saying equal) support when it comes to resources that are shared among all groups. While we certainly can gain more manpower, some things like the space on the DVD, the mirrors or the fpo frontpage is limited and needs to be shared more suitable. * Make sure groups don't make progress on the account of others. It is not acceptable if one group continuously makes a change that breaks several other spins/programs/desktops. * Allow the Desktop Live-CD to be called "GNOME Live-CD" or similar in some contexts. I'm not saying that we should get rid of GNOME as the default selection and I think the download options are already very good designed, but in some contexts it must be allowed to call GNOME GNOME, e.g. in the boot menu for the multi desktop DVD. The sleeves of the Live-CD should mention it is GNOME because the term "Desktop Live Media" is the #1 FAQ on events. * When it comes to decision making, make the decisions in time. * Listen to the spin community or the community in general and consult them before making decisions.
