So as I wrote before my friends have already moved to fedora but they were a little bit surprised that XFCE wasn't available at Fedora Core 5 installer. So at the moment they've got a fedora core 5 system with XFCE and (a never used) GNOME. They selected GNOME because it's more like XFCE then KDE and it's never wrong to have a fallback option ;-) > We are also discussing some changes in the release strategy including > availability of extras packages in media.
