Fedora.next: Scope of the Workstation product

[Florian Weimer]

The Workstation product is described as a "platform for development of 
server side and client applications".  However, the technical 
specification does not include any development tools (except a Python 
stack and the GNOME Javascript stack, but those are incidental 
dependencies).

Based on a review of what the other working groups are doing, it seems 
that we won't end up with any development tools at all in the inner 
circle of Fedora.next.

I understand that all products will be delivered with the Everything 
repositories enabled, so GCC, autoconf, cmake, Boost, OpenJDK, Eclipse, 
and so on will all be available.  But I had hoped for a curated subset 
of packages which could receive additional attention (and eventually be 
held to higher standards).

How can we avoid having a developer workstation that does not include 
the full range of development tools?
