So if Codeina and autodownloader stay, why can't we add Adobe's yum repo to the default configuration? We all know there's never be a way to replace Flash (other than for playing ads which don't use any streaming) and in Adobe's case, they're obviously Fedora-friendly (yum repo) and there's no way to infringe on anything. With that repo in place, browsers (after asking the user, of course) could simply run the yum GUI of the day asking it to install flash-plugin. The second most frequently asked question about how to make Fedora usable is gone. Think about it. Lam
