Provided this discussion, my guess is no. Look, I like a good argument as much as anyone else, but this is ludicrous. Are you just replying to me for the sake of scoring a point? Or are you seriously suggesting that a sensible direction for Fedora is to consider the requirements of nine year old hardware and attempt to adjust our software to match? Is this really what you would like us to do, or are you just compulsively contradicting whatever you can? Because I'm not interested in a back and forth point scoring match. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | identi.ca: adamwfedora http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
