1) would be valid usually
2) Probably not
3) Should be ok
4) Must be fixed in livecd-creator itself. File a bug report.
A spins policy is being drafted, but the most important guideline is
that to use the Fedora name, a spin can only include software from the
Fedora repository.
Currently I don't think we have any cut and dried rules on what sort of
default-changing is acceptable. Some people have indicated that
changing default behaviors in %post is acceptable. I think maybe this
is not the right time or place to simply declare what's in that policy.
To follow the policy development, join the fedora-advisory-board list,
