As a result I also followed the mentioned: http://live.gnome.org/ThreePointFive/Features/InitialSetup and related: https://live.gnome.org/ThreePointFive/Features/UserPanel I wanted to raise 3 separated issues not mentioned in Fedora feature page: 1. There's no mention of other desktops: * For example, let's assume KDE has no equivalent feature. * We still need the KDE (or other desktops) spin to have during the first boot a functionality (but not necessarily the same look) of "firstboot" * So IMO, this feature should explicitly mention how it intends to treat other desktops (e.g: booting with KDM, LXDM) regarding basic mandatory configuration (e.g: creating new user, setting timezone) 2. The GUI seems to bundle system-wide settings with per-user ones: * What if *other* GNOME users would like to use the same modern GUI to enroll into their online accounts on their first login? * It seems to me a lot better not to mix "first boot" functionality with "first login" functionality. * Even if the design people want to pack them into a single "integral" UI, the per-user part should still be designed to be operational by itself on "first login" of any user (not only the one that installed the system). [obviously, a new user should have her chance to take the "tour" on first login even if the system was installed 5 months ago by someone else] 3. No mention of kickstart integration: * Would we still be able to have fully automatic install? [without the first user being bothered with system level stuff like networks, timezones, etc.] I think these 3 aspects should be marked in the feature page and with proposed strategy to handle each of them.
