• do we want to be on the list of critical packages?
  • if yes - which packages should be on the list?
  • if not - are we going to be treated as second citizens?

    • we need testing plan
    • basic QA is "try to use the desktop and report any breakage you notice"
    • we need some targets like "does WPA in kde-plasma-nm work?" for a kde-plasma-nm update etc.
  • rdieter will prepare concept

• jreznik contacted pinheiro (upstream) for his idea
• fedora design team feels more negative on this
