I agree that this is a concern - suggestion for the naming scheme if we include both
(which Stephen and I talked through today, he came up with the final naming scheme I that
I think would work well):
- Fedora Server Edition
- Fedora Custom Operating System
Since minimal really is for folks building a custom OS right... makes more sense, and the
names become use-case focused here instead of the ambiguous term "minimal" for
which there are maybe 5 different ideas of what that means... make sense?
Or
- Fedora Server Edition
- Custom Operating System
Is the custom OS really even Fedora? It's Fedora packages, but not a
Fedora product. So it could go either way depending on the emphasis.
Also "custom" doesn't exactly convey the bare bones result, but
perhaps that's not a meaningful concern for the target audience for
this option.
