Yup--and you're welcome. But those are only two collections. If the policy is /all/ collections, that would be good to codify. Most of the remaining comments appear to clarify rather than repudiate what I said, so I'll incorporate the clarification. The one question I cannot quite resolve is: if there's a binary-only driver, say an nVidia driver, can there be a Fedora Addon collection that includes said driver? Or must the driver be naked--packaged for, but never distributed as part of, Fedora XYZ? M
