That _was_ the original idea. And my answer to the remaining question
of
"who" was: somebody who is interested in that matter _and_ is going to
talk as a fedora representative. Ideally I would suggest to discuss this
matter at a conference like FOSDEM to get a audience for that.
(This works for way more complicated stuff - so why not for that grub
thing?)
Why do we need something to officially represent Fedora? If your
interested..start a cross distribution discussion now. There is a
mailinglist for cross distribution discussion at
freedesktop.org.
Talking about it at conferences is great and all, but its not the only
mechanism.
http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/distributions
Having a long drawn out Fedora-centric discussion on implementation
details is a waste of time.
If everyone has come to the point where they agree that it can't be
sanely done without getting cross-distribution consensus to build a
new metadata construct that we currently do not have..then its time to
stop talking here..and start talking in a distribution neutral space
and worth other the implementation details there.
