Wait, I hit send before finishing my thought, which is: we also need a mechanism which reflects reality rather than an abstract design. Like, sure, if we were going to create the whole thing from scratch now with no history, it probably wouldn't look like it does. And distros (even Fedora) have always just made exceptions. It'd be better to have a working, living standard that makes room for that than one which everyone ignores. Which is to say: I _don't_ think the process should be to get the FHS restarted and updated and in agreement before moving forward, _especially_ when the proposal is already aligned with what openSUSE is doing, and what we're already doing ourselves with IoT/CoreOS/Kinoite/Silverblue. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader _______________________________________________ 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 Do not reply to spam on the list, report it: https://pagure.io/fedora-infrastructure
