No, we are not defining multiple products. We are defining a single workstation product. It will have a default user experience that is using one desktop environment, GNOME. We will define criteria for other desktop environments to be installable as alternatives. Those criteria will include things such as: - use logind for session registration - work with gdm as the display manager - does not interfere with the default user experience (cf the recent incident where installing cinnamon broke screen locking in GNOME) -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
