Many many times the FE process starts like this : I need to do something, there is no app to do this something in Fedora, I'll package an app which does this something for Fedora Extras. Then goes fishing for the best something-doing app, based on biaised ML advice, obsolete web reviews, etc. Most packagers do not care which something-doing app they package as long as Fedora Extra gains the something-capability. So guidelines to help choose a candidate for packaging certainly help. -- Nicolas Mailhot
