I agree, but let's do keep in mind that the job of *Fedora* is to lead the advancement of free and open source software, and educating people can reasonably be a component of that. Building an OS is one of the activities we undertake in order to accomplish that mission, but we're *not* doing it for its own sake. > Developers probably already know what open source is - we are no > longer the underdog.

That's definitely one of the reasons developers were chosen as a target for Workstation. We're not starting from zero. But we _do_ want those users to get increasingly caught up in using free and open source software everywhere as a first choice, not just when it happens to be an easy one. If we can do that by making things easier, awesome — and we should! — but that's not the only angle available to us. -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
