== What do we need? ==
# Black box
# Metadat
# Extensibility
# Seeding
# Adding new spins
# Metrics
 
== Who? ==
* tinkerer
* live USBs
* developers to build more spins
* spin user
* spin reviewer
* potential spin builders
 
== Tasks ==
# Get details on a spin
# Modify spin details
# Find spin you like
# Download spin
# Build spin
# add spin to site (unofficially)
# apply for official status
#* submit
#* review
#* pass/fail
# Review spins and approve
# Gardening/which are being updated?
# Voting/popularity
#* Find the "coolest" spins
#* Mozilla addons as a model
# Discontinue spins?
# View security vulnerabilities
# Download kickstart file and extra scripts that were submitted
# Spin diffing
# Howto for revisor
# "Make my Fedora this" -- one click install with metapackages and PackageKit
# "I use this spin" sticker to put on blog or what have you
# '''Advertise'''
# Based on Fedora and *only* Fedora?
 
== Example users ==
 
=== Joe -- artist ===
# Read about spins
#* from blogs?
# Go to spins.fpo
# See popular spins, categories, and what a spin is
## What are all spins? (generally)
##* What do they do?
##* Why do I need it?
##* Why don't I just use plain Fedora?
##* How do I use it?
##* How do I download
##* Screencast/video
##* Live vs. installed
##* Link to directory
## Expanded view on individual spins
##* Comments
##* Digg-style voting
##* Karma++
##* What's in it
##* Link back to what a spin is and how to use
 
So...
 
# What does Joe need?
#* idea of what he wants
#* fedora system or USB key or blank disc
#* time it takes
# (blank box)
# What does Joe get?
#* Live image with instructions
#* 1-click to make your Fedora that spin (PackageKit)
 
==== So we want to search for spins by: ====
* package
* task
* tag
* "art"
* pkgdb metadata
* filtering out spins that won't work using Smolt profiles?
 
which leads to a huge list of spins. somehow we need to compare. use what is available in the list, such as architectures, live/install, what media it fits on, etc.
 
Then click spin, and we see
* download this spin
* "make my fedora this" (PackageKit)
* other suggested packages
 
== Interesting questions ==
 
# Allow Adobe to create a spin?
#* If it uses all Fedora software, that works.
# Live spin or just an installer?
#* The main consensus is to allow both, and make sure we tell the end user on the spins page.
