In the context of Board level member composition and priorities, maybe. It should certainly have equal footing with Freedom anyway. Features doesn't make a ton of sense at the Board level. The Board is very clearly never First in anything we do. The primary guiding Foundation(s) are going to differ from group to group though. Take FESCo and the FPC for example. In FESCo, Freedom is very seldom even in play because it is almost always a given, so Features and First tend to be the main Foundations in play. The FPC, on the other hand, often has to deal with Freedom due to content and licensing. I doubt they're making many Friends with all the packaging rules they come up with though ;). Anyway, overall I do think we as a Project need to keep Friends more in mind than we have been. I don't think we need to be literal friends with everyone, but we do need to consider how we can cooperate and compromise on things as they come up. josh -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
