Fixing Features FAD

This is the main page for the Fixing Features FAD (aka: F3), which is a FAD focused on fixing the Fedora feature process.

Purpose

1. Our purpose is to... complete with the following primary goals:
   • Identify the purpose(s) of the feature process
   • Identify Fix-its: What are we trying to improve? What is broken, what works well and should be retained?
   • Redefine or further clarify definitions for Features and Enhancements
   • Draft and propose an improved feature process for approval by FESCo
   • Redraw the feature process diagram
   • Create a plan to re-educate/spread the word about the New and Hopefully Improved Feature process
