Design software is a special interest group intended to package and 
maintain software for design team.
It was born to fill the need to include design related tools unavailable 
in Fedora repository.

The following mission is to
- Maintain the Design group in the comps.xml,
- Promote more the Design Suite,
- Actively maintain design-related packages,
- Tracking bugs and fix them when the main maintainer is inactive for a 
certain periods


Design Software has FAS account named design-sw (Design Software in short).
The mailing list is design-devel at lists.fedoraproject.org where the 
activity on maintaining packages occur.
The bugzilla alias is DESIGN-SW for tracking review related to design 
packages and cc'ed to the design staff.
The wiki is located to 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/Design_Software with currently who 
active members. Members can be design team or packagers.

At long term, Design Software will actively maintain the Design Suite 
based on latest version on Gnome Desktop, participate reporting some 
issue of development software packaged by some design team members and 
be close with upstream as possible.

A thank you for Design Team for helping making this Special Interest 
Group a reality and the Infrastructure team for setting up the FAS
