I don't think it will need to be a separate feature due to fact that "booting" will likely depend on systemd anyway! If there is a reprieve for sysvinit in mga3 I think it's perfectly reasonable to depend on systemd for Gnome anyway without the need for a "Feature" per-se. > This I really want to add: > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ckremoval Yup +1 on that. Tho' I think it'll happen anyway even if we don't detail it as a feature specifically. > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Gnome_shell_software_rendering Yup I think TV mentioned that the other day. Again I think this will come semi-automatically anyway without the need for a feature page. > There is also stuff we can steal from Fedora.

Others disagree, but it's just a default and it's easy to disable. Probably worth a feature wiki page. > Possibly controversial: > http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UsrMove I already wrote that one up: https://wiki.mageia.org/en/Feature:UsrMove Feel free to flesh it out, but I mostly just referenced the fedora page.

Worked well for me with wired, wireless and 3G networks via a dongle when I tried. All pretty painless.
