I'd suggest trying a different hat than just black. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Six_Thinking_Hats Suggest to also think of how to address concerns. At the moment, it seems you want to bribe programs to accept a complicated and long process (distributions) because the alternative might be too easy (apps). This highlights a concern, not a "fatal flaw". The flaw IMO is within the distribution method. It takes a long time and currently there is nothing that makes it easy. Luckily there is no other method at the moment to archive that. Say you have this new application and you want to provide it to (most) Linux users *now* (not 6+ months later). There should be an answer for that. -- Regards, Olav -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
