It is now possible to install Sugar-Desktop ONLY to a Hard disk using
the F11 net install .iso.
It is no longer required to have Gnome or KDE as a companion
desktop.
So we do have a Sugar-Desktop "distribution" already in F11.

There have always been distributions that made Gnome their official desktop
environment, even very early on. That is not the case for Sugar. Whether in
Fedora, Debian or Ubuntu, Sugar will always be a secondary desktop at best.
That is in fact completely incorrect. KDE is not the primary desktop
in Fedora but there is a team that makes it a first class Desktop in
Fedora.
OK. We just have a terminology problem on the definition of
"distribution". Is Fedora 11 KDE Desktop Edition "a different
distribution" from Fedora 11, or is it "the same distribution"? Is
LUbuntu (LXDE Ubuntu) a different distribution from standard Ubuntu? The
answer doesn't matter; it's just a definitions problem.
Having an official "Fedora 12 Sugar Desktop Edition", making Sugar a
first-class alternative to KDE and Gnome in Fedora, would be a great
thing, and I suspect it would satisfy most of Philippe's concerns.
