I agree that's a possibility, but I'd rather _one_ of the WGs start by trying to be productive and then reaching out instead of having them all just sit around waiting for each other. josh -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
