Hrm, OK. I see what you mean. It is asking the user similar questions and that, from a usability perspective, is not a good thing. Sure. My concern is of a different nature. I am concerned that in the current implementation, or in what I see being discussed (so please correct me if this is inaccurate), I do not see a stage where we point out to the user that we, as Fedora, would really really reallllyyyy like them to use Free software, and not use proprietary software unless absolutely necessary (right?). Would you have any ideas on how the whole experience can include such a statement to clearly emphasize our commitment to Free Software? Like I had said in a reply before, I think this is an excellent opportunity to make the Free Software philosophy more visible to end users. :) -- Thanks, Regards, Ankur Sinha "FranciscoD" https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/User:Ankursinha
