No, that's not really our right.  We compose and deliver the product, as
defined by more appropriate folks, like the Board or FESCo.

In the past, the answer to all of these was "yes".  The DVD tried to be
everything to everybody, because it came from the Red Hat Linux days
where everything could fit on the DVD.  When we merged core/extras we
didn't change the DVD much, and still haven't.  So for now, I don't have
an answer for the above, other than the Fedora Board has defined a
target audience, and our (default) offerings should cater to that target
audience as best it can.
