Questions / Discussion Points
Who are our users?
- "I think the idea of focusing on target users is important here. Will having a GUI for servers help us grow Fedora Server use? Is it where we should put effort over other things that would grow it *more*? Who are the users, and, short of market research, do we have the collective expertise to make a reasonable case?" --mattdm
