Hmm.  That's an interesting read, and for what it's worth I like the 
position he advocates. It could be a great improvement over the current 
'yum groupinstall' situation, depending on how some of the details are 
worked out.

But looking at it from a 3rd party software perspective (F/OSS or 
otherwise) it's barely an incremental improvement over the current 
status quo -- While a third party will be able to rely on a minimal 
package set being present (thereby eliminating a step in their 
installer), they will still have to specifically target individual 
Fedora [Product] releases and keep up with Fedora's release cadence as 
well.  (In other words, it's a negligable improvement without some 
significant changes to Fedora's release and support models)

Anyway, time to resume hacking on Gutenprint.
