I should point out here that my idea is to have a generic toolset made available. The number of tools currently available in different domains- Physics, Chemistry, Biology is just too many. Including them all in one big spin may not make a lot of users happy, simply because if I am a engineering researcher, the Biology tools are just useless to me. | I should point out here that my idea is to have a generic toolset made available.

I should point out here that my idea is to have a generic toolset made available. The number of tools currently available in different domains- Physics, Chemistry, Biology is just too many. Including them all in one big spin may not make a lot of users happy, simply because if I am a engineering researcher, the Biology tools are just useless to me. I haven't actively looked into applications which may not be available in the repository and is important to a spin such as this. Needless to say, I am going to take upon the responsibility of packaging such software, when I come across one, or its pointed to me. If you come across a package which you want shipped, please add them here.
Initial spin review
- Please fill out all fields before you mark the spin 'Ready for Wrangler'.
- Please state the targeted size of the spin.
- So is this going to be a GNOME or KDE based spin? You can only have one spin and one kickstart.
- What about duplicated functionality, e.g. evolution/kmail and thunderbird?
- What is the target audience? For me this looks like a mixture of development and science.

Initial spin review Response
Please fill out all fields before you mark the spin 'Ready for Wrangler'.
AMIT: Done.
Please state the targeted size of the spin.
AMIT: Targetted DVD size. Right now, the ISO takes up 2.2 G.
So is this going to be a GNOME or KDE based spin? You can only have one spin and one kickstart.
AMIT: KDE. Modified the spins page
What about duplicated functionality, e.g. evolution/kmail and thunderbird?
AMIT: I will remove thunderbird from the KS file or any applications which provide duplicate functionality.
What is the target audience? For me this looks like a mixture of development and science.
AMIT: There is significant amount of coding/development which goes on in simulation based research. So, it really targets Science, who also has development "needs".
Final fixes
Thanks for your response. I have have tweaked the page a little and marked it'ready for SIG', however there are still some things that can be improved:
- Better slogan
- Add text for the spins page
- Add text for the download tab
- Rework text for the support tab. The text you enter here is meant to end up on spins.fedoraproject.org/scientific, so please don't use first person.
- Include an update on the artwork status

Final fixes Response
Thanks for your response. I have have tweaked the page a little and marked it'ready for SIG', however there are still some things that can be improved:
Better slogan
AMIT: Working on it. Have asked for suggestions on the SciTech mailing list.
Add text for the spins page
AMIT: DONE
Add text for the download tab
AMIT: DONE
Rework text for the support tab. The text you enter here is meant to end up on spins.fedoraproject.org/scientific, so please don't use first person.
AMIT: DONE
Include an update on the artwork status
AMIT: once the slogan is finalized, will get back in touch with the artwork folks.
