Hey Thorsten! Glad you did. ;)

This is not practical. Lots of people are thinking about a
fedora.next, qa folks are coding away, lots of people who normally
would be working on the next release are not. If we tell them to
stop all that and go back to normal, we could, but then fedora.next
will likely never ever happen.
Understood, but OTOH it makes me wonder if Fedora.next is a step to
big and needs to be split or something.
[...] The current problem I have with Fedora.next is that it's
so
abstract. I understand that people who like PRD's and TPS want high
level descriptions of what we want to do with goals and visions and
such, and thats great. However, I'm a technical person. I like
concrete plans and pushing what we can do with the technology we
have at hand, or helping to make new technology to do what we want.
+1 you found really good words for what's a big part of the problem I
have with Fedora.next
We are now down to the point where groups have written up their
PRD documents, and can get down to details. So, I am hopeful in the
next month or so we will gain a lot more interest in fedora.next
and more feedback as concrete deliverables are discussed, etc.
That is my hope at least... we will see. :)
Yeah, we'll see :D
Your words otoh scratched another thought in my head: The PRD
documents (and some of the other docs around Fedora.next) in great
length talk a lot about "how" they want to do something. That up to a
point is needed obviously. But sometimes I miss a few introductions
words on the "why" we want all of that and how it's supposed to make
Fedora better. But that's obviously meta/abstract again, which I
myself criticized earlier. So maybe it's simply this ted talk that
stuck in my head too much:
