This could isolate many users from their greater expertise and might slow the growth, not only of Fedora, but Linux in general. We are a community grown from a movement. As a community we should help fellow members and newcomers get established if we want this community to grow. This movement was started in a general spirit of co-operation and will die if this co-operation ceases. We are the friends, family, and members of this community that grew here because of someone's work and help. We need to remember this fact. As a community we need to determine what will help the most users and not choose for our own convenience. I believe also that a more general list would serve this purpose. -- jludwig <wralphie@xxxxxxxxxxx>
