Hi all,

I have been working on a feature proposal for a while now to propose
cleaning up the wallpapers that we present to the user by default in
Workstation. It has been on the agenda for the last few meetings, but we
have run out of time in those meetings :(

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/WallpapersCleanup

Basically, the proposal is to clean out the wallpapers that we currently
present to the user, and just show:

1. The default fedora wallpaper for the release (the one created by the
Fedora Design Team)
2. The default wallpaper for the upstream desktop release (e.g. the default
GNOME wallpaper for the release of GNOME being shipped)
3. A new set of 15 alternative default wallpapers chosen from the past
Fedora supplemental wallpapers. The supplemental wallpapers are a set of
wallpapers (that change every release) that are included in the repos for
people to install and use. The idea here would be to choose 15 of the best
from all past supplemental wallpaper packages to be included by default.
I noticed that no one else addressed the proposal head-on, only
related matters. ;-)  To wit, questions:

* Do the Fedora/GNOME wallpapers remain as is, and the new wallpapers
   replace the current desktop-backgrounds SRPM content that usually
   goes into desktop-backgrounds-basic?  (Currently that is 6-7 images
   of stuff like the old ladybugs-on-a-leaf image.)  If so, I'm +1.

* Do tiles stay?  (Does anyone *use* those anymore?  Eww.)


Yeah, that is what i was thinking. Removal aof all the wallpapers there, apart from the Fedora one for the release, and the GNOME one for the gnome release, and the "top 15"

All the older tiles and other images in there won't appear without installing a package. (i.e. no ladybugs by default)

cheers,
ryanlerch
