Ideally, this would be submitted as a Change proposal, but I don't think it really matters. I would ask you to file an issue for the Release Notes[1] so it can be communicated to the public (unless someone else steps forward and maintains it so you don't have to). [1] https://pagure.io/fedora-docs

Heads up: No more snap plugin in gnome-software

Hi all, In Fedora 31 I'll be disabling the snap plugin from GNOME Software. It's never been enabled in RHEL and so this change only affects Fedora. It's also not installed by default and so this change should only affect a few people. It's also not really a FutureFeature, it's a RemovalOfFeature b
