ge to be compelling. The most valid one is repeated installs of throw-away VMs, and I addressed that in my original post. Just make up a password that passes and write it down. If we do make this conditional, either based on sshd being active, or per-product then where do we stop? Most decisions the installer makes about the system could be called 'enforcing', so do we now have to have a vote on every change? Passwords are the gateway to people's private data. We should be encouraging them to choose stronger passwords and we should remember that we're not the only people running Fedora. -- Brian C.
