Well, the overarching definition of Core and Extras as originally
defined was that there were *no* binary exceptions.
Yup--and you're welcome. But those are only two collections. If the
policy is /all/ collections, that would be good to codify.
Most of the remaining comments appear to clarify rather than repudiate
what I said, so I'll incorporate the clarification.
The one question I cannot quite resolve is: if there's a binary-only
driver, say an nVidia driver, can there be a Fedora Addon collection
that includes said driver? Or must the driver be naked--packaged for,
but never distributed as part of, Fedora XYZ?
