As the soul who currently coordinates and moderates the work of the Server WG, I would be very much in favor of such a SIG as a possible way out. If it's good enough, that is. Just coming up with the idea of removing the (new) installation of such a central part from one release to the next leaves me speechless. That's tens of thousands of devices / users affected and we don't even know how many tens of thousands. And then phrases like "..will remove it anyway". What else is there to say? I'm afraid just creating an x86 BIOS SIG is not sufficient anymore. We need a completely different spirit in this area. Don’t get me wrong. Lack of resources to maintain something is completely legitimate. But I expect more open-mindedness and willingness for constructive alternatives. And none of that is evident in the Change proposal, nor in the discussion here (by the change proposal authors). And it is OK for me to migrate to UEFI only in the long run. But not that way. _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
