Please tone this inflammatory rhetoric down. It's not helpful. When you
said you wanted this part of the thread to close, I thought that's what
you meant and took it seriously.
Here, I assume you're talking about no one having packaged GNOME
Recipies (apparently _written_ as a Flatpak proof of concept) in
traditional RPM form. But, we can't make *any* upstream author package
their stuff in RPM for us.
But, if you want that as an RPM in Fedora, _no one is really stopping
you_. Go for it!
If you're talking about something else here, then I missed it
completely and encourage you to be more straightforward and stick to
the technical.
I think he's worried that applications might intentionally get left
behind that someone would want.
Also, GNOME upstream doesn't do the packaging for Fedora GNOME anyway.
That's the Workstation WG's job. Just like how the KDE SIG packages
the Qt/KDE stack, the Workstation WG (aka GNOME SIG) does this for the
GTK+/GNOME stack.
