The kde list is: k...@lists.fedoraproject.org Stephen is correct, this discussion shouldn't be on the development list for the reasons he mentioned above. I've copied the kde-list. please respond there if desired and remove reference to the development list before sending.
I'd just like to reiterate my earlier comment: "I believe you are missing the point of defaults.... which is to provide as complete environment as possible out of the box. Since this is a KDE spin, we should be providing as complete of a KDE environment as possible. Users shouldn't be required to go on a treasure hunt to seek out available KDE applications. The idea is to showcase what is available in KDE. If you don't want to use a KDE default you can easily either go into settings and change the defaults, remove the package you don't want, etc." It's a KDE spin, not a Google spin, GNOME spin, UNITY spin, KDE-Lite spin etc. On Mon, Oct 2, 2017 at 8:06 AM, Stephen John Smoogen <smo...@gmail.com> wrote: > On 2 October 2017 at 10:57, Sylvia Sánchez <bhkoh...@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Hello Stephen, > > > > So, according to you, this discussion won't change much KDE Spin? > > I am trying to move this conversation from being bikeshedding to > possibly accomplishing something.
