Again, and this is a really important point that people aren't getting
here... what has been stated here is about release categorisation issues,
not user issues. You could well say, "distros ship GNOME anyway, why should
we have a Desktop release at all?" and if you were focusing on user issues
only, you'd be right. But that's not the whole story. I understand Eugenia's
points from a user perspective, lengthy as they may be, but that's not the
entire basis of what we're doing here.
