We're using this definition here:

Yes, I know. And I say that it might be OK for a "GNOME
Application", but doesn't seem to be OK for Fedora application.<br>
<br>
Edit: I didn't know. I thought it is the same as the other one given
in a previous email. I see it doesn't require things like a 'primary
window'. It seems that many command line utilities in Security spin
can be considered applications since security spin provides .desktop
files and icons for many of them! But, should people start working
around the limitation of your definition by providing icons/.desktop
files for command line apps?<br>
<br>
Also, you already include non-application software such as Fonts.
And I'd bet that there are some non-GUI software which are much more
useful to be included than fonts which will be rarely used. How many
times a user might need to install fonts after installing Fedora?
Specially after the initial setup, I don't think its very likely
that (s)he will need to install new fonts. But, in case of
developers, they might require new -devel packages, profiling tools,
etc. every now and then. And a developer certainly appreciates user
reviews when he wants to select a library between many different
libraries providing a similar functionality. <br>
<br>
BTW, input methods, codecs and fonts are already included. Why such
a hard position against things such as console applications, and
-devel packages? Yes, regular libraries are *usually* not installed
directly, but on the other hand, -devel packages are almost always
installed directly, or as a dependency of another -devel (or
toolchain) package. <br>

It's really not.</pre>

Sure?<br>
Wikipedia has a page about it, one of the application types you can
create in Qt Creator is "Qt Console Application", Microsoft Visual
Studio also provides a "Console Application" type. Yes, none of
these are authoritative, but I wonder if there is any reference
backing your claim.<br>
