From a resource and quality perspective though, I'd rather not burden rel-eng and QA with having to maintain, create, and test spins. They can be done entirely outside of Fedora. They can be created and hosted on their own sites, etc. F20 improved spins overall, but that was because of a concerted effort with our existing resources. If Fedora.next is going to succeed, those resources are already going to be overwhelmed with the 3 products. Spreading them thinner for little benefit in most cases seems irresponsible. josh -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
