… and applications!

Our spins also select core applications (file manager, text editor, web 
browser, word processor etc.) which are part of the desktop environment.

Yes, but having a spin with them already on it is much simpler for its 
target audience. (That said, I wouldn't use it since they moved away from 
KDE to GNOME. :-/ If I needed FEL, I'd rather either groupinstall their 
comps group on a KDE spin install or install individual apps.)
