I see no grounds for such an assertion. Also, "the QA community" is hardly the only stakeholder who should have a voice in this discussion. In fact, there are four stakeholders: QA, packagers, upstream, and users. What efforts are being made to solicit useful feedback from all four groups? and based on you responce I have to ask how do you see the "traditional" desktop being relevant after all that time and if so used by whom as in which target users ( novice end users/power users/administrators )?* Many of the benefits to RHBZ that I and others have pointed out accrue whether the user base contains "novice" end users or not. * I can play the prognostication game as well as you can, and no, I do not think that the rise of the tablet means that in ten years there won't be any "novice" users on desktop computers. I can type 102 words per minute on a keyboard, and I can work a lot more productively on my two 25" monitors than on an iPad screen. There are uses for which a tablet is great, and uses for which a desktop computer will still be better a hundred years from now. * I expect that as smart-phones and tablets become more ubiquitous, Fedora and other desktop OSes will evolve and focus on the things for which desktops are best, while tablets will continue to focus on the things for which tablets are best. jik |
