Now, the primary goal should be to get all the tool in Fedora. When that's
done, they should probably go for a package group to give users an easy
way to install those tools. And then if the initiative gets a traction and
attracts a lot of people I don't see a reason why they can't have a spin.
I think it's not really a matter of "can't have". It's a matter of
"maybe
not the best use of energy". Take a look at the numbers for the top spins
this release, over on the right column of this page:
http://spins.fedoraproject.org/
I don't think this is because KDE or XFCE aren't popular among Fedora users.
People just don't get the via spins. And that's even more true for
non-desktop spins.
