Really?  What you are asking is hardly "every step of the way".  What you're asking for is a rewrite of the foundation for what the Project was founded.  You worry about losing users because we don't make it easy to use non-FOSS software.  I worry about losing contributors when you start changing the beliefs of the Project.  In my opinion, you haven't provided a very good arguement as to why we should fundamentally change what we've stood for for the past ten years.

Let's not forget doing so for a new software installer integrated into a *single* desktop environment of those many we maintain and deliver into the hands of our end user base but it's good to know that the workstation wg has already *decide* which desktop environment is going to be representing which is as I had expected to be from the forming of the wg's...
