Who can say how Workstation is key to delivering Fedora’s vision of the future? Or why Workstation is the primary vehicle for Fedora (as opposed to any other spin or edition)?
I like how Máirín puts it in A new conceptual model for Fedora as desktop Fedora experience is an entrypoint for a user into the “world of Fedora”. Or the first level in the pyramid.
It allows to not limit the project to desktop use, but it highlights the importance of the desktop experience of a user for Fedora.
Fedora becomes more like an umbrella organisation for independent projects pursuing their own visions.
This is a valid point. I think we don’t want to become something like Apache Foundation. There should be some unifying force which ensures that we actually work together rather than just next to each other. And it should be something different from “Red Hat has commercial interest in X”.
Some time ago I was trying to make non-modularized shared pool of integrated rpm packages to be that common thing, but it appears to be a more controversial topic than I originally thought.
