Well. This thread was sparked partly by my FESCo ticket, which is
written from a project-wide perspective, not a product/WG-specific one.
The project as a whole has skin in this game: it is important to the
project how the project chooses to deliver KDE, and if the answer is 'in
more than one way', the relative importance of those ways. The
Workstation WG is free to integrate KDE into their product in any
appropriate way, of course, but I think the project *as a whole* has a
say in whether that's our primary method of distributing KDE - how
heavily it's promoted, how hard it's tested, and whether it blocks our
releases. In that context, the existence or otherwise and relative
importance of a KDE spin is obviously significant.
