I think so. It's a good place to test potential replacements for technology in core that can't be tested in Extras due to this very reason - conflicts. It also could potentially be used to test some neat ideas that modify core products, such as Elektra (which I think is a good idea ...) The downside is it would require infrastructure which costs money and time and the ROI for Red Hat may not be worth it. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
