So if we carry one vendor how do we decide which of a thousand rival vendors get into the default yum.conf.d and how do we then audit them. Shall we sell icons on the desktop like a certain other vendor did ? What will you pay to have the fetchmail yum repository in by default..? See thats not the way to go for Fedora. It might be a brief, interesting, and maybe profitable racket. With no non-free vendor in the default yum.conf the problem doesn't occur. They can all compete freely using market forces for your clicks and your money. What would be useful (free or nonfree) is an xml/yum-repository type format that could be hooked into firefox and friends so you can "Click here to subscribe to fetchmail-pro" etc -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
