I have no problem with it, BUT, (and I speak personally here), there are
some people that will not use it because it's just too big (500MB is
larger than some of the monthly data transfer caps in New Zealand
(200MB/mo), I personally, only have 700MB/day.
Also remember that even though it may produce a 500MB noarch rpm, it also
means quite likely a 500MB srpm making it 1 gig in total.
Another consideration would be the size of the community behind
vegastrike, if we have 100+ then thats great, if it's only 10 then I
become doubtful over it's usefulness in regards to resources. (Don't get
me wrong, just trying to put a slightly different perspective on it.)
Don't forget that Vegastrikes community has a strong potential to grow because we offer it and upstream will expect us to offer the lastest stable version. 0.5.0 represents a lot of work in the right direction for them and they are excited about their new features, let's not be buzzkills and carry older versions, be friends with upstream and give them a gateway to millions of Fedora users.If we treat them well they will be likely to recommend Fedora to their users and everybody wins. I, for one, have never played Vegastike but following this thread my attention has been drawn to it I would like to see what 0.5.0 has to offer.
