No, because we 'provide' many more desktops than just GNOME and KDE. The
point is that _only_ those two can currently block releases.
I love the idea, but caution that we are defining, not supporting
policy.
I know we aren't defining this, since it's a generally understood
concept. But I worry if no page already exists that defines
"supported", this will be perceived as QA defining what a supported DE
is. Possibly overly sensative.
Should we pitch the proposal+draft to FESCO for comments?
I've always liked the layout of the Architectures page [1]. Can we
borrow the "Secondary" term from that page?
Thanks,
