Dan, I'd like to kindly and respectfully ask that you stop referring to
Fedora's target user as a 'novice' user. This is not Fedora's user base.
I have pointed this out to you in IRC in a private chat some days/weeks
ago and I have pointed this out to you earlier in the thread. Let's not
muddy the waters and confuse the conversation by continuing to bring
this up, as it's just not reflective of the reality of Fedora's actual
user base:

Let's try to refer to this more frequently so we can have a more
productive / fruitful discussion here, okay?
(BTW the user base was not determined by engineering or FESCO, it is
the purview of the Board and they came up with it.)
On your point about voting - we don't vote on decisions like this. We
are not elected officials on the design team like the governing bodies
of FESCO and FAMSCO and the Fedora Board, so we don't really have
authority to vote on decisions like that.
