Why is wayland being included? Last I checked we are still using X11.

42596   wayland-devel.x86_64
21216   libwayland-client-devel.x86_64
14860   libwayland-cursor.x86_64
7204    libwayland-cursor-devel.x86_64

========

Thunderbird is new? Drop it. Let's use evolution.

=========

8847388 community-mysql-server.x86_64 <-- ??

============

gnome-getting-started-docs.noarch <-- is this really needed? Why
doesn't Gnome 3 get docs online or something?

=========

Quite a few devel packages as well.
