No, I meant how many users does Fedora need to be a viable
distribution? Could we loose 70-80% (seems far fetched) of our user
base and still be viable? If we can, I don't really care how many
users we loose as long as Fedora becomes more useful to me. What
concerns me most is retaining a large percentage of committed
maintainers and community members, and that is a small enough number
that I think we can poll effectively.
