I think Peter's referring to "practical requirements" not "compliance requirements" — the latter probably indeed better with UEFI, secure boot, and a lot more, but the former in the real world being "yes, we've got way more legacy hardware, configuration, and policy than ideal, but we also don't have the staffing or budget to change it all at once". That's unlikely to be publically documented — but nonetheless is believably true. (And I think it's probably _particularly_ the case in small-medium environments which might choose Fedora Server.) -- Matthew Miller <mattdm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
