Well, we've got: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/PackagePresets and it seems like we could probably come up with a preset selection for non-desktop system use. I'd say "server-presets", except it goes beyond server, of course. But yeah, we'd need to make that easy -- a list of "now you get to jump through these hoops because we've made things better!" won't make anyone happy with us. Additionally, it _would_ be cool for log monitoring and analysis tools to gain journald support, so that users of those tools can take advantage of all the features Lennart lists. If we could have some of those in place along with the proposed feature, that would be a win. -- Matthew Miller ☁☁☁ Fedora Cloud Architect ☁☁☁ <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
