Here's a quick once-over of the stuff you mentioned. I'll look at the
rest in more detail, but here's what I know off the top of my head:
First impressions of the LiveCD desktop
We want it to be uncluttered, and to show off the coolest stuff in the
most obvious way. To that end:
- do we need the SCIM module in the top right?
- do we need the Desktop search module in the top right?
For that matter - shouldn't we pre-populate the image with index data if
we're going to include Beagle?
- We need a default homepage for Firefox that isn't just the
generic
firefox page.
IIRC this is coming (as with the "Welcome to Fedora Core 6!" page) soon.
Although I'm not sure if we have/want a LiveCD specific one.
I tried every single application under "Applications",
"Places", and
"System". It was a disappointing experience. Has anyone else done this,
both for the liveCD and/or for the actual installed distro?
- abiword crashes on startup
Yep.

Added to the LiveCD tracker:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/showdependencytree.cgi?id=Fedora7LiveCD
- "System->About Fedora" can't load properly
due to missing
about-fedora.xml
Again, I believe this is coming along with the bookmarks and Firefox
start page.. Actually I thought we had a placeholder there now. Did it
get dropped from the LiveCD?
Trying out the installer
The "restart" button at the end of the anaconda/install window didn't
work, and I had to manually restart the machine from Gnome's system menu.
That's a known bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/225168
It's on the F7 LiveCD tracker.

I forgot to look, but we must make sure that the default choice is
"do not

It is.
