Maybe it does but I guess what people are wondering about (but do not spell out) is this: Why was this decision made without talking to FESCo and the FE community? All this silent stuff that went on behind our backs (just stressing ;) ). This statement is what it is basically nothing. I don't think that we need to know everything about what maybe went on in legal but at least FESCo/FE community deserved to hear from this beforehand. What I would have expected is a mail maybe to the packagers list with a heads up for the FE people that their packages will be pulled into core because mono (for some reason or the other) gets included and so on (see other threads and flames about this). Maybe rejecting mono stuff from extras for now will get us this explanation maybe it won't. I don't know but this maybe the reason for this reaction and other reactions we see. I want to stress that this is simply my understanding of the stuff that is going on atm and _not_ my opinion on the topic... after all I am pro _fedora_. - - Andreas - -- Andreas Bierfert | http://awbsworld.de | GPG: C58CF1CB andreas.bierfert@xxxxxxxxxxxxx | http://lowlatency.de | signed/encrypted phone: +49 2402 102373 | cell: +49 172 9789968 | mail preferred -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Fedora - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDz4sNQEQyPsWM8csRAlA5AJ9BMoRVLQvySD5c3shzcscnU78UGQCfRz65 tQAO4lQdQSrO5sMpO38mfVo= =NoCv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
