You are confusing Fedora with a company. There is no top-down
communication on what is or is not supported. There is no hardware
support list or hardware certification list. It is literally what
people show up and test.
In the past couple of weeks we have:
1) Fedora going out to survey HN about what they want, and 'seamless
hardware compatiblity' being a top response
2) This thread about how there's no institutional (for lack of a better
word) project commitment to any set of supportable hardware in particular
If #2 is the hard reality, there's not much point to even bothering with
the effort of inventorying items from surveys like #1.
If #1 is a serious effort, then that should lead to a discussion of how
we fix #2... but that's a discussion for a council or "please
$CORPORATE_SPONSOR, help us" list, rather than this tactical thread.
I do think that, for the sake of the project, the disconnect does
need to be resolved somehow.
