No, sorry, you might have misunderstood the PRD. We aren't producing a distro only for developers. We are still producing a general purpose OS but we are focusing our own development effort more on making it easier to use Workstation for development. We had this discussion already when approving the PRD. There were concerns that people might misunderstand the wording there to mean that we are no longer supporting the general desktop user. No; the PRD only enumerates areas we'll give special focus during development and is not meant to say that those are the only supported use cases. It is still a general purpose desktop distro. Quoting from the Workstation PRD: "We want to create a stable, integrated, polished and user friendly system that can appeal to a wide general audience. /.../ This PRD is not meant to be an exhaustive list of what potential users can or will use the Fedora Workstation for, but rather outline the Workstation working groups development priorities and overall goals." ... and goes on to explain that one of those development priorities is to be attractive to developers. http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Workstation/Workstation_PRD -- Kalev -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
