Some spins won't be desktop-related.

Maybe what we'd need is something like AUR where users contribute
packages for Arch Linux which are not "supported" enough to be in the
main repositories?

We could have the official 3 (for now) products, and a different "place"
where the wider community can gather to publish different images, each
one with a different focus (e.g a KDE desktop, or a tailor-made cloud
image for a new provider, or an arch-specific image for a
yet-unsupported device, or...)

We could even call that "place" spins.fedoraproject.org ;)

It could be more open than the current spins process, allowing a wider
community to publish more varied things than we have now (more spins!),
and it would be up to each group to ensure the quality of what they
produce, have their own release cycle, etc...
