Desirability and manpower can't be seperated in some situations. This being one. page to the sig\wiki suggestion. Project Managment 101. Get wiki\sig What's lacking, what can we do to fix\improve? However as I said in my original post other distributions have
already made the decision on the philosophy and people have stepped up to the plate to make it happen. It is already happening in other distros, to the question remains as to whether it is a way forward for Fedora - the decision might be "no". In which case Fedora moves on with its current plans unchanged.
It may be no, due to manpower\time issues, back to sig\wiki. On the other hand if the decision

You will probably get an answer based solely on this. but that is a separate issue from
answering whether or not it is desirable.

Of course Fedora is competing with other distributions - inevitably,
Wh?,, you use the tool that suits the job. Be it Fedora, Ubuntu, MS, Mac et al
