To me it is, in a weird way: I tend to view the presence of someone who's willing to actually *do* something as a proxy for there being others who care about it. For instance on the 32-bit x86 topic - if the x86 SIG had *worked* and we'd had one or two people who really cared about it show up to do the work, like we have for ARM or ppc64, I'd have been more inclined to believe there were more people out there who really needed to run Fedora on 32-bit x86. So if the question is "do people really want Fedora on physical optical disc?", I'm more likely to believe the answer is 'yes' if one or two of them shows up to actually test it... -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ 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
