Hello!
I just saw the new post speaking about the Workstation's new third-party repositories. Would it be possible to please amend it to include more information on how this new feature aligns with Fedora's foundations? We're working on a draft of what will become the page that Gnome software will link to here already, and @pfrields already made an editorial pass over it here too. Otherwise, given that the magazine is our primary user facing outlet of information, I worry that users will read the info here and it'd prevent them from paying enough attention to the official document.
So, it'll be good if the magazine post says the same thing, in the same way - stressing that we're committed to FOSS, and that it's being done to improve usability while also giving visibility to the FOSS alternatives? @ryanlerch @pfrields - what do you think?

Thanks for all the great work that goes into the magazine :)

It is a bit late to amend the article significantly but I think a followup article that talks the rationale, limitations etc would be quite useful. Perhaps you want to write one? I can help edit if you like

Yes, that sounds like a plan. I'll get started on it right away :)
