Well, sure, but the question is not 'who is liveusb-creator targeting?' but 'what should people who hit getfedora.org from Fedora see?' So long as we just give out .iso files and some links to instructions on what to do with them, it's not really a problem. But with the idea that we should instead give out liveusb-creator, it becomes a problem to be solved. Should we provide Fedora users with a button that magically installs liveusb-creator properly? Or do...something else? > Even with traditional live images on the getfedora page, it is a bit > strange for a Fedora user to go there and download an .iso, isn't it ? > Since downloading the .iso is not really the preferred way to upgrade > your system either... Well, not necessarily: it depends if they're going there to upgrade the system they're browsing from, or if they want to install on some *other* system. In an ideal world I'd suggest we should handle both cases nicely, but I'm not the one who has to do the coding and the web design. ;) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- test mailing list test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/test@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
