In the last two releases, watching changes and the communications around them, I think we often have this kind of failure of expectations. We (Fedora in general) need to continue to work on that. Often, change-filers expect that by having their change accepted, it's now on everyone else. And conversely, often other groups feel like the change owners should have covered everything. That ends up being more adversarial than it should be. I think it's good to think of the filed Changes as a communications vehicles but not the complete communication itself. The change owners *should* be more active about starting discussions with affected groups, but aren't always experts on what those effects might actually be, so it's important for others to do exactly as you say — make sure to keep an eye on changes as they're filed. I think this is a good general responsibility for the WG FESCo liasons — watch the changes as they come in and make sure the rest of the WG is aware. Of course, that doesn't mean that others can't watch too.

I've mentioned on the devel@ list that we're OK with this provided they find a solution for NetworkManager's connectivity checking, and drop the tray icon. Am I correct to say those are the only problems for us?

I spend a lot of time in coffee shops with my Fedora laptop - this would be an excellent thing to document for end users, assuming there's some way a current (F22) user can select either modality and compare the two!
