You keep using this framing device. I'm very interested in which other popular-competitors-in-a-component-used-by- nearly-all-users-and-whose-choice-affects-dozens-of- interconnected-applications "other options" you have in mind. If you can cite of another such component that's preselected, I will gladly concede everything you've said.
And why is this relevant at all? Any user who wants the choice would still have it right at his fingertips. The people who don't want the choice would have some guidance, so they won't feel like we're leaving them stranded with a pure lottery. As I've said before, the magnitude of the choice, is a very bad argument for not having a default. On the contrary it's a strong argument why we shouldn't force the user to make such a choice within in his first few minutes of interacting with our distro, if he doesn't wish to do so. I wonder if having no preselection/default is supposed to be so great for attracting people, why noone else is doing it - including even Debian. You'd think they'd have noticed how great it's worked for us in recent years... </sarcasm> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
