Hello Stephen,
So, according to you, this discussion won't change much KDE Spin?
Besides, how do I join a SIG? Do you have a link by chance?
Regards,
Silvia

The way to make changes on the desktop spins is to join the SIG which
produces the sping and work there. Ways to make it work is find out
why they have chosen those defaults, what effects your wanted changes
would have, and do other people feel the same way. Talking about it on
this list is not going to get any changes or alternative spins (the
KDE minimal).
A spin can look like a simple thing which is freely made, but it is a
lot of work which is why SIGs are needed for each one. Coming up with
what is going to be on it is part of the work because everyone wants
something different. There is testing the spin, making sure it doesn't
go over certain size limits, working out problems with icons and
discoverability, and similar tasks. Every SIG who is doing a spin are
always needing people who can help on those other items so helping
there would be a good way to explain why making other changes is
useful.
