Fedora Workstation is pretty much the same as F20, asides from having software that is one year newer. There are no fundamental differences, besides the "developer focus" which prompted the inclusion of devassistant. > In Fedora 21 we are using > the new hawkeye backend It used to be named hawkey (not hawkeye), but it got renamed to hif for some reason. I wouldn't mention terminal transparency either. That was added in a post-release F20 update, so it would be misleading to advertise it as a new feature, and it doesn't exist in F21 anyway. (If you were using transparency in F20, that's going to be removed when you update.) And proper Qt themeing... I don't remember hearing about progress on this; did it ever happen? Testing a few Qt apps in rawhide, they do look decent, but I'm not sure what they looked like before. Michael
