Woops, wrong thread. Below message was intended for the cloud e-mail I think?
Sorry for spamming everyone this afternoon. I've been a bit out of touch.

Just chiming in again. I wasn't able to participate in the naming of Fedora
20 but I LOVE it.
Best name yet :) P.S. Can't wait to fire up a brand new Fedora 20 stick---
it might be a few
weeks though. Until then I am living vicariously through your
conversations....

The standard on what you or I want is irrelevant. Windows, Mac and the mobile
platforms iOS/Android define the baseline for font-rendering and this is the
standard for which web-designers work hard to craft their pages. Relative to
those systems Fedora's out-of-the-box configuration is incorrect and out of
place.
I myself am perfectly fine with the way fonts appear out of the box on

As long as I have a great terminal color-scheme I'm happy but I also think that
great looking web-pages are also important too.
