What does this mean? It means that you, Rodrigo, can build your own
version
of Fedora that *does not* include the pieces to which you object. And if
you
submit this version for board approval as an "official" Fedora release,
I'm
pretty sure you'd get it.
But you have to do the work of maintaining it... and you have to deal
with
the complaints when other people don't agree with *your* policies. :)
In fact... and sorry to expand on my own point...
This is, in fact, an *extremely important freedom* that we're talking about here. I've been in the Fedora leadership for a long time now, and we've made decisions that even *I* disagree with.
For what it's worth, I will *encourage* people to make their own versions of Fedora that adhere to *their* standards of what Fedora should and shouldn't be. And we let the Marketplace of Users decide.
I am thinking about this. Create one Brazilian spin !
Thanks to all for the attention!
