Comment (by kparal):

 I like the proposal itself (I also believe minimal install should not
 contain X), but I don't think QA should be the authority that decides and
 dictates this condition.

 I think currently it is very unclear who manages different flavors of
 Fedora and who gets the decision powers. Who owns the desktop flavor (or
 should I call it a spin?)? Who owns the minimal flavor? Who should I
 report bugs to? Who decides what should be there and what should be not? I
 don't think FESCo should be bothered every time we want to add a remove a
 package. It must be someone else.

 I'm currently not very clear on these matters, especially wrt minimal
 flavor. I suspect desktop SIG would own the desktop flavor, but it's very
 possible that no-one manages minimal flavor at all. I tried to find some
 document on our wiki that would address this, but I failed. So any
 explanations are welcome (I guess adamw will know, he knows everything).

 After this is cleared up, I think we should talk to the minimal flavor
 maintainer (or create one first?), whether this is the current policy or
 not ("no X in minimal") and whether Fedora release should be blocked if
 some X package happens to enter the set.
