Unfeatures technically. He wanted to remove features from the Default
spin. Subtracting functionality is not a feature. He wanted an
unfeature.
No he wanted out of the default install. We have a badly defined
naming scheme which is causing confusion:
default install -> what you get when you put the DVD in and do a click
through install.
default spin -> The GNOME desktop livecd.
Spins are managed by their respective "teams":
default has been GNOME and managed by GNOME sig
kde is managed by KDE sig
xfce is managed by XFCE sig
etc etc
So I would say that the GNOME team is within its rights in managing
its spin. Whether it is named default etc is someone else's problem.
