It doesn't work that way. When you involve volunteers top down control is ineffective even if you bring in some balance with a elected model. In effect, there needs to consensus within the project on some direction.

.  Now people can say it's aimed
at devs but to me it seems like Fedora is very strong in the server market
but on the desktop side of things it doesn't go all the way.  Leaving Codecs
out of it cause to me that's irrelevant.

Servers usually need a longer lifecyle to be effective though and codecs are a important factor in what you consider a desktop but true we are not going to be doing proprietary codecs by default.

So I suppose it's back to the question who is Fedora targeting as an
audience?  Should Fedora separate out certain aspects to cater to certain
areas?  Like coming up with ideas for desktop enhancements and a group for
Server enhancements.  With the Live-CD's I believe that's a HUGE step in the
right direction.

Right. Live images are a good first step. There has been a number of discussions on the steps forward. We will have to explore and see. Nobody has all the answers.
