The diagram you draw implies that the level of compromise depends on how much has changed state in the distro between the first step and last step. By that logic, this would be a better compromise than what actually happened: Before today's FESCo meeting: * The old mixer was removed * 1 mixer installed by default in the desktop spin. * XFCE, KDE, N Other mixers available via PK or yum Today's FESCo Mandate: * Ship new mixers by default in the desktop spin. * Ship KDE mixer by default in the desktop spin. This makes only one change just like your compromise. What's really involved in compromise is how far each party moves from their original positions from the beginning of the process: Pre meeting FESCo * new mixer is not sufficient to meet many user's needs - put alternative graphical mixer onto the default spin - add a button to the new mixer to invoke the alternate Pre meeting desktop Team * New mixer is sufficient for all but a few pro user's needs. - 1 new mixer installed - new mixer runs in panel Post meeting * 2 mixers installed * new mixer runs in panel * alternate mixer hidden away in the menus Note that from my outside view we have one glaring problem with our compromise. We've compromised on what programs go into the images for F11 but we haven't resolved the fundamental differences of opinion as to what the user's needs are. Without that this problem will reoccur in F12, F13, ands o on. -Toshio
