I care far less about whether such a conversation is OT for this list as compared to making sure that the 'right' people are holding the 'right' conversations in the 'right' places to increase the chances of progress on the issues of web service integration. I think I have a good idea of what the 'right' conversation needs to be.. and I'm equally sure I'm the 'wrong' person and this is the 'wrong' place. A fedora specific discussion about the broader issues of how to integrate web services is essentially self-indulgent navel gazing and ultimately not as constructive at actually addressing the larger issues. We will of course deal with the case by case Fedora specific implementations if and when we must. But if there is a desire to get ahead of the problem and see best practises developed then that has to be done in a way that incorporates other stakeholders, including peer distributions as well as service providers and not just our point of view. How many Gnome developers who are playing around with web service hooks in the Online desktop are here reading this list? How many other distributions who are going to be dealing with the same exact issues concerning where to draw the line on what is appropriate for on-by-default web service license terms notification? How many potential service providers are reading this list? I think Freedesktop has a track record of being the place to facilitate these sorts of discussions in other areas (though admittedly more technical areas), so it makes sense to me that it be the place to have this particular discussion. -jef -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
