Oh, it absolutely remains nice to have, and by "nice" I mean "awesome". If we can improve all four of the big size consumers (python, kernel, modularized docs, modularized i18n), it'll go from "on par" to actually being an advantage. And even if we can't get to that for a while, improvement is still improvement, and when I said size isn't the primary driver, I certainly didn't mean to imply that it's not an important one. Since isn't the only driver for the kernel work you're doing either, I don't think. Another big advantage is that the modularized drivers will allow us to skip out-of-schedule updates for security updates in the driver package. -- Matthew Miller -- Fedora Project -- <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> _______________________________________________ cloud mailing list cloud@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/cloud Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
