Hi all,

Quite a while ago, i floated an idea in the Workstation working group to clean out the older wallpapers that we ship by default in workstation, and replace them with a new set of Fedora-specific ones that are chosen from all best of the previous Supplemental wallpapers.

NOTE: this will not change THE default wallpaper, which will still be the one that the design team works on each release.

THe WG has approved this proposal [1] in the latest WG meeting, and now i am bringing this up for disussion here.

Basically, the proposal is to ship just the following as the default wallpapers (i.e. what people will see in the Wallpapers tab in the Settings GUI) in Fedora Workstation:

  1. Provide the default Fedora wallpaper for the release, that is created for each release by the Fedora Design Team. This will remain the default wallpaper as it currently is.
  2. Provide the default wallpaper & lock screen artwork for the upstream desktop release (i.e. the default GNOME wallpaper and GNOME Lockscreen for the release of GNOME being shipped)
  3. Remove all the other wallpapers we currently ship and create a new set of the 15 wallpapers from the previous Fedora supplemental wallpapers.

Note also, that 15 was chosen to keep the wallpaper chooser tidy, as it displays them in rows of 3.

cheers,

Just a heads up too, I have the packaging all set up and ready to go if and when we decide to do this
