Anaconda has a pretty special place in this project. It is the uber-administrator of every new Fedora install. We would do better as a community to hash out major changes before they're made, and try to reach some agreement before we implement them.
I've been reading loads and loads of blogs about the Anaconda redesign. That was a pretty major change. Something like showing a password is terribly minor change when developing.
There was a pretty huge outcry about the Anaconda redesign, despite all the blogs. Now there is some small change, and there is a call that "major changes need to be hashed out".
Seems like nothing they'd do would ever be good enough. Getting consensus before most commits sounds like a good way to scare away developers.
