=== Background ===
This content has moved to:


The Board has been working on defining a target audience for Fedora.  In response to this, some people feel that Fedora should allow sub-groups to define their own target audience.  Or even more strongly that Spins/SIGs should be the '''only''' groups defining target audience; in other words, the Board should not be defining one.  An example mail supporting this position is [http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/advisory-board/2009-October/007430.html this mail] from Toshio.

However, the potential conflict between a Board target audience and a SIG target audience is still theoretical.  No SIG appears to have explicitly disagreed with the "working" target audience proposal.
 
=== Possible Solutions ===
# Board sets target audience broadly, spins tailor to a subset thereof.
# Board sets target audience broadly, spins tailor to either a subset thereof, or to additional audiences outside that scope so long as there are no conflicts.
# Board does not set target audience, leaves it to each Spin to set their specific target audience.
## requires spins to be much more than consumers of Fedora content.
## audience of some spins may overlap.  That's OK.
## audience of some spins may technically conflict.  How to resolve conflicts?  Spins SIG -> FESCo -> Board.
