It's not the project's role to lift non-default software to the same
level of involvement as the default software. Why /should/ KDE be
treated equally?
When I look at a directory listing and see
Fedora-11-x86_64-Live.iso
Fedora-11-x86_64-Live-KDE.iso
it is pretty clear to KDE users which image they want. How about we
give the poor Gnome users the same courtesy and indicate which image
includes what they are looking for? Why should KDE be treated better?
