FESCo agreed to defer to FPC to figure out the right thing to do here, reevaluate if this needs to be handled as a Change later
= Self Contained Changes = * Vagrant - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Vagrant discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185864.html

* Snapshot and Rollback Tool - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Rollback discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185804.html
* Transitive Trusts with Active Directory support for FreeIPA - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/IPAv3TransitiveTrusts discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185634.html
* OS Installer Support for LVM Thin Provisioning - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/InstallerLVMThinProvisioningSupport discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/185803.html
FESCo accepts LVM thinp as a Change and asks to treat usability issues as bugs to be worked out, change documentation from N/A to 'please document in install guide' and speak to maintainers of tools like coreutils.
* Enlightenment - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/Enlightenment discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/186080.html (announced on 2013-07-18 but without complaints)
* Apache OpenOffice - http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/ApacheOpenOffice discussed on https://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/devel/2013-July/
Apache OpenOffice Change is accepted under the condition that the conflicts with libreoffice must be worked out. openoffice and libreoffice packagers get to work them out. There is no Fesco mandate that libreoffice must change to accomodate openoffice at this time. alternatives is not the way to resolve the conflicts but environment-modules may be looked at as a similar means to achieve that.
mattdm wants this to be perfectly clear: FESCo does not grant automatic exceptions to our processes on any basis.
