Hi Matthew,
I initially basically ignored the previous E-Mail, because it didn't
come from a person I knew, and - from quickly glancing over the
contents - read like marketing fluff. I should have dug deeper there,
but we all only have limited time.

This is definitely getting more attention. Maybe the initial E-Mail
should have had a less bland Subject line, too ;)

Those all sound like good things to work on.

This point though ... hmm. Also kind of mentioned on the linked wiki page:

What exactly does that mean? Moving to something two-tiered like the
ubuntu model (main / universe) - which I think is a terrible solution?
(And what would be the names for this in fedora - "core" and "extras"?
(pun definitely intended))
Also, I find it funny that - somehow - tons of resources would be
available for "better CI pipeline tests for everything" (!), but we'd
have to "focus resources" when it comes to the fedora "platform"
itself.
I hope my response doesn't read overly negative or critical - but I
think some fedora contributors (including me) have been weary of
something like this ("focusing resources") since the IBM news got
announced.
