But, that may not always be the case. I haven't seen any indication that anyone wants that to change as part of .next. What we're currently discussing is basically a deliverables question: what collections-of-packages-in-some-sort-of-lump do we want to release, under what names and branding, with what level of support, etc etc etc. But I haven't seen anything in even the most radical proposals which involves dumping non-Product bits from the repos. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
