Not a bad idea to have a thinner, lighter version but it should really
follow Fedora's standards more.  For example, GNOME should be the UI and
if you are shooting for a slimmer profile, why would there be so many
redundant packages (3 window managers, 3+ office suites/apps, various
graphics apps).  Shouldn't it just be a best-of-breed/consistent with
the rest style choice?  And packages that aren't even included in FC
itself shouldn't be included (Gnumeric moved to extras, Inkscape,
noatun, etc are not in core).
