Simplistic start of a checklist: 1) Is your package included in the default install of one of the main spins? 2) Is your package _the_ default application of it's type? 3) Is your package involved in the building of the entire distro? (E.g. rpm, gcc, glibc) 4) Are there a large number of packages that depend on your package that will be effected by an upgrade/change/etc ? 5) Are you trying to promote this package as a Feature for publicity reasons? 6) Does your package enable something that is highly end-user visible (e.g. magically working wireless, push button pony making) If yes to any of the above, please create a Feature page. If no, and or/you are still unsure, ask one of your FESCo representatives and they will guide you. josh -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
