Ryan Lerch has been working on a comprehensive Fedora Workstation visual identity proposal
for a while. I will ping him about it, as maybe that will let us have a more concrete discussion
about how we differentiate on the visual side. Yes, we also need to find ways to differentiate
on the functionality, but as we all know that is quite challenging in an open source setting,
but I have gotten some suggestions for possible projects we could look at in that direction.

The details panel? Are you kidding?No, Bastien wasn't kidding, And I don't think your response will lead this discussioninto a productive direction.Not that it is very likely for this repeated rehashing of known disagreements to lead toanything other than gnashing of teeth and frustration on both sides anyway.But if we need to go over it again, lets do it: Fedora needs to first and foremost differentiatewith awesome functionality. People will only associate warm and positive feelings with thelogo you force onto them if they are wowed by the experience.
I think this is a good idea, but it's hardly sufficent. I'm not sure
it really fits with the direction Workstation is going — I notice
Terminal isn't even in the default Dash.
Have you ever met a fedora user who didn't know how to get to a terminal ?Honest question, you probably meet more Fedora users than me.
