Patches are the preferred form of feedback. Yes, I realize I might have been too harsh, I'm sorry if that seems to be a personal attack; it is not meant to be personal. I'd like everyone here to take a few minutes and read recent fedora-extras-list or fedora-maintainers-readonly archives. That's what development discussions look like, and not what one can see on this list. Sending off-topic mail here only means that development discussions will move to more closed places (fedora-maintainers), or stay at more closed places (internal Red Hat lists). That in turn makes initial contributions of interested developers harder, hurting the future of Fedora.
