B/c I think it's a bit unlikely.
Why not? PulseAudio lets you play audio from any system on any other system. You don't need to be some kind of nerd to want to do that. Lots of people need to get to their wireless router config page. In fact, *everyone* should, if only to change the password. And there's nothing unusual about browsing the local network, which avahi enables without the need to set up NFS or Samba shares. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
