Well, it really depends on the circumstance. In general, it's just practical reality that a proof of concept or MVP will get you a lot further than a suggestion -- that's not, like, a Fedora law or something. There are certainly many examples of awesome great stuff that's been created in Fedora without the investment of Red Hat (or anyone's) full time employees. The zchunk metadata feature is a recent example. The Stewardship SIG is another one. This is good stuff, and I'm super-happy to support it. In both of those cases the people interested in that thing happening put in exactly the kind of effort I'm talking about here. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
