No! this is *not* an early "when-will-the-next-Red-Hat-be-released" type of email. We all know when that's going to happen, don't we? (more or less) No, but, what if... If the fairy princess, you know, the one with the magic wand, would come to you and whisper in your ear: "you can pick one, but only one! application, one that's not currently in Red Hat 9, and that application *will* be in the next Red Hat release", what then would you do? Which application, in your opinion, should definately be added to the next Red Hat? But then she comes back, and she says she forgot to mention something: "Oh, I forgot to mention something, ahh...ehhh...your application will only be included if you pick one from the current release which has to go." Which application, in your opinion, could be missed from the next Red Hat release? Although the next release is still some time away, it's never too early to think and talk about these things, is it? I know we could discuss these things through Red Hat's bugzilla and make requests for enhancements, but maybe, setting up a thread in this mailing list will make the discussion accessible to more people. Maybe some of the Red Hat developers could chime in now and then to reflect on the (im)possibilities of including a particular application mentioned by one of the respondents in this thread?
