... which automatically makes it simple for *everyone* including new 
users. It would be nice if you could drop having a argument just for the 
sake of it. You expressed a opinion that we need to drop creating live 
images which we are not going to do for reasons explained earlier. You 
also feel that new users might get scared because people might come 
across a Fedora live image and try it out. I am not sure we can or need 
to avoid that. Anything else?
