Do they feel like they are asked? No. People who think they know what our users want, deciding right now that Fedora will change into. Yes, i wrote *think they know*. They don't know, they just guess. It seems they guess because *they* want it like that. Even a poll (yes i have read all the posts if the poll is good or bad) has shown, that our users want's something different that those decider guess. >>>>> (and even worse try to change it) >>>>> They also want to learn, >>>>> maybe eventually be in a position >>>>> to give back to the Fedora Community, >>>>> and floss in general. >>>> >>>> They can give back with any other distro as well, >>> >>> True. >>> >>> that fits their needs better. >>> >>> So you say. >> >> Well, all that complaining in this meag-threads makes it obvious that >> Fedora doesn't fit their needs, don't you think ;) > > What doesn't fit their need is the infracstruture, > not the distro. I guess you mean their infrastructure. Well, since they can't change their infra, they want us to change into something that fits their infra instead of choose something that fits already into their infra. Look, it's not like i can't understand your point. Though we're spinning around in circles and there's not one argument *why*, should we change. There are lots of distros out there, exactly fulfilling those needs. Why "kill" something beautiful like Fedora just to be another such distro. Nobody really needs that. -- LG Thomas Dubium sapientiae initium -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
