intentionally :) To drill down to a single point though, as I said
above, I don't want the distro to ship every piece of software I might
use. Today, there is too much of a focus on doing it that way where I
think there would be more value (to those who use third party software
or who are pondering downstream consumers of Fedora also) in having a
smaller core and treating everything that comes on top equally.
Yeah, our "how to join Fedora" process makes it easiest to start by
adding to the number of packages instead of by adding to the quality
of existing packages. It might be beneficial to have things the other
way - if someone could find a practical way to do it.
