What kind of requirements might there be to calling it Fedora Lite?  In
one of the many proposals before Fedora Extras came out, there was the
idea that alternate and associated distributions could be spun out of
the FC+FE combination.  That's not an official goal right now, but it
seems it's possible (and desirous to some :-) to do.

Open questions:
- What infrastructure beyond the existing would these other respinnings
of Fedora need?
- What communications with current FE and FC packagers?
- Are we willing to "bless" some with Fedora XXX names?  Under what
conditions?
