Yes, the legacy stuff (desktop icons, GNOME 2 favorites) are removed, and 
instead GNOME 3 adjustments were added - welcome screen, dash favorites, 
Firefox home page.

The welcome screen probably works only in GNOME. It uses GNOME JavaScript, so 
we can easily place that into kickstart instead of packaging the software. I'll 
ask Lukas to have a look whether we can show the welcome screen even in other 
DEs, if we include some GNOME library or something.

You're right, but from what I've seen that should be very exceptional and rare, 
right?

I'm not really convinced that disabling firewall and SELinux is a better 
default for Test Days. I think it could be a bit better, but it's just an idea 
- if you (anyone) have good arguments against it, I have no problem reverting 
it. The SELinux is quite fine in both approaches, it always pops up error 
dialogs. The firewall is more silent and can lead to hard-to-discover issues, 
on the other hand it is quite a departure from the default setting.

This is quite a surprise for me. We use fedora-livecd-desktop.ks for nightly 
composes. So for official TCs/RCs we use fedora-live-desktop.ks now?

Why is fedora-livecd-desktop.ks still available then? I should probably ask 
Desktop SIG. Some of the package removals will be needed to be transferred from 
fedora-livecd-desktop.ks to fedora-live-desktop.ks anyway.
