When you have created a package repo that can support all those personality types, then you have a model for Utopia.
But is it reasonable for people to expect Fedora to have a set of tools that let settlers feel like they are trail-blazers? To abuse your analogy for a few moments more.... brick and mortar trail-blazer know with intimate detail how difficult the environment will be on a daily basis... in fact they almost cherish the difficulty. brick and mortar settlers on the other hand want absolutely none of those very real dangers and difficulties.. but love to vacations and pretend to be trailblazers and pioneers... and they tend to need to sign liability waivers in case they get hurt while on vacation. I'm perfectly fine with trailblazer and pioneer repos, full of alternative builds or new things, that are intrinsicly more difficult to deal with. I'm not so fine with a set of tools aimed at settlers that encourages them to play in the more dangerous spaces without a liability waiver analogy. -jef"there is a reason that only 1 in 4 families who claimed land during the landrush of the mid-western united states were able to survive more than one winter."spaleta -- Fedora-marketing-list mailing list Fedora-marketing-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-marketing-list
