Also at the moment server is all that is built for Secondary arches
and so with a DVD installer it is the only way they can get a minimal.
There's been some talk recently of having a re-chartered Base WG maintain a
functional minimal install (as well as the container base image). That
seems like it might serve some of the Secondary arches better (although
for others, actual Server seems appropriate too). And, I guess that's
still separate from whether Server should _also_ present a minimal
environment of its own — that's a question of audience and use cases, I
guess.
