I doubt people use languages > other than english. Its not just 2 images tho. ;) There are currently 11 approved spins: design-suite desktop kde lxde security soas xfce robotics scientific-kde electronic-lab games Each one is made for 32bit and 64 bit. Thats 22. We have netinstall and dvd install isos. Thats 4 more. We have multi-live and multi-install, thats 4 more. Thats 30 images. Producing 30 more would be a pretty large burden on QA and Release engineering. So, if we are going to make changes, we should make them on the base images IMHO. > I also think we should have a portal where people can request new > programmes to be packaged for fedora. we do have: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Package_maintainers_wishlist kevin
