So, if you all don't mind, I'd like to steer this discussion in a slightly different way:
What *is* the definition of a Fedora Change Proposal? I was under the impression it was an announcement of intent by the maintainers of a specific subset of the fedora project to "change" something. Once said announcement has been discussed publicly, Fesco (Sorry if the capitals are incorrect) discusses it internally (albeit, publicly) and either blocks or approves the change, making it official. *(Please note: The following paragraphs will use "we" as a pronoun which is intended to be the Fedora project as a whole)* Once approved, we announced our intent to drop X11 from the KDE spin of Fedora. That announcement has gained traction everywhere, got publicized and everything. As Neal Gompa also stated, it has already caused some substantial development effort upstream to effectively iron out the rough edges of many of the problems, with what I assume is more to come. My fear is that, while those x11 libraries/runtimes/... *would* indeed no longer be maintained by the KDE sig, we would basically just be partially rolling back that initial proposal. And the quality of said packages would also maybe suffer from them being updated separately, which might also reflect poorly on us (*again, in this context, "us" = the Fedora Project)*. It would also introduce a precedent: What if later a proposal is made to remove some old drivers from, let's say, the kernel, and someone decides to package it, undermining the general efforts of that proposal? Hopefully I'm making sense. Writing this 30mins after waking up might not have helped. What I'm trying to say basically is, I get that for some legacy nvidia users the Wayland experience may not be optimal. But will it *ever* be? Does that mean we can never drop x11? Will anyone ever update those legacy nvidia drivers? *Could they be?* Le mar. 30 janv. 2024, à 07 h 48, Sérgio Basto <ser...@serjux.com> a écrit : > Link to the FESCo ticket: https://pagure.io/fesco/issue/3165 > > and I'm very upset > > -- > Sérgio M.
