Two things: 1) no one really uses the desktop image as a basis for cloud 2) having no limit does not mean people will stop caring about size ... as this example shows. If someone cares he/she can work on reducing size. But we do not need to enforce it using arbitrary limits. -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
