IMHO, I think we can greatly simplify this "burning tower".
What we
need is an arm computer - strong enough to run an external usb
burner,
and a externally powered USB hub, maybe an SD card reader too. If we
attach an tiny touch and LCD either, then I think an RSPI2 would be
enough as heart of this system. From software side I think we have
already base and roots, just need some pimp up to get our
"burnmachine" as simply as a coffeemachine. The app is called
Multiwrite, and its in our repos already.
It would be an nice project for us, and would be an nice portable kit
for events, moreover - the multiple usb can be also an
"hey-pal-charge-your-device-til-we-can-chat-about-fedora" thing on
the
booth. I have seen similar by Intel booth. Opinions?

I have a friend who is a system engineer working on installing a recent
fedora version on R-Pi2 and desisted. Seneca College made the proof of
concept and moved on, so Pidora is outdated.
This is the opportunity for a nice article on how to install fedora 23
on R-Pi2? Not everybody is well versed in the tiny details to make this
works.
... and then another article on how to run multiwrite in R-Pi-2
(hopping that gnome-multi-writer does not need the full gnome desktop
and works nice in a XFCE setup)
Raspberry-pi aside, having multiwriter at a event may be really nice.
I had great attention using turbojet as a multi DVD writer tool, but it
is not in fedora repos.
