I've said nor implied no such thing. I've very specifically applied feature creep criticism to the GUI installer, and as yet I haven't even said what I would take away from the current GUI installer, only that I wouldn't add any more functionality to it until what we have now is better stabilized. > Just because I don't currently need to create weird > partitioning schemes doesn't mean that I don't value it. Kickstart. CLI tools. Not GUI installer. Weird does not belong, AT ALL, in the GUI installer. Weird is untrustworthy. Weird is unintuitive. Weird is capricious. They are incompatible with positive, clean, quick UX. The GUI installer is unique, users don't use it often, they shouldn't even have to depend on any documentation if it does its job correctly. -- Chris Murphy -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
