* I disagree with OO.o inclusion. It's too big and ugly. Fedora provides
AbiWord and it is nice. Also, Gnumeric is by default.

* tsclient? There's no reason to put it, until majority of cumminity
will want it.

* Vino? Is it the video editor? Or VNC client? Also, I see no reason.

* Fedora Frog? It is unofficial.

* Browser mode by default? Go upstream, if this is very hard to change
one option

Livna, FreshRPMs and Dribble joined RPM Fusion, but still they provide
packages with non-free licences.

They simply cannot be just like that available. Livna is not official.

I only think that Livna could e approved and then used by Codeina, but
this is only in my imagine.

How it is currently, is good.
