I'm pretty sure i didn't mean to imply my thoughts are mutually
exclusive with taking aim at certain groups. I just want to make sure
the message is thought provoking instead of encouraging impulse
decisions. To sum up my concerns into a simple headlines.
I want to avoid blurbs like:
"Fedora Linux is great! Try it now!"
and i would instead prefer more open ended tone:
"Is Fedora Linux right for you? Find out now!"
Indeed -- and this actually goes hand-in-hand with actually focusing on what
we want to accomplish with the project -- rather than just the
dropping-leaflets-from-30000-ft approach.
