In addition to the list of goals you have there, I would suggest: * Create an official minimal server spin image, link to it on fedoraproject.org/get-fedora (when we do this, we can relegate the choose-your-own-adventure DVD images to a secondary page) * Consider creating a landing point page for all the admin technologies in Fedora (kickstart, cobbler, etc.) Does one exist now? Do you plan to create a mailing list, or use this one? -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
