I wasn't proposing a definition of spins based on number of people.  I
think we have a good definition for spins already, which is that spins
are customized remixes of Fedora, specifically those with trademark
approval -- images other than the standard DVD and Desktop images that
our community produces.  I was just trying to answer the question of
why the Desktop and KDE images might not need an extra layer of
review, given that they each have many people actively reviewing them.
