fedora LTS , why not?

[Adel ESSAFI]

Hi list


I was using fedora and redhat since 2000. To day, I can see that our
favorite distro is really very strong. However, I have done some experience
(short) with Ubuntu and I have liked to LTS concept (Long Term support).

My idea is to build a distribution that is based on Fedora at 100% with
1. LTS
2. with a very reduce number of packages
3. with proprietary codecs and essentiel software (mp3, flash ) included in.

I know that the variety of the open source projects are making it's power.
However, I aim to build a distribution with only one software from each
catégory. That is, I have to choose between:
*  KDE and GNOME for the destop
* rhythembox , kaffeine, ....... as media player
* abiword or openoffice as office writer
.............................................

Technically, I will maintain a repository  with a reduced number of
packages.


If I get positive feed back from this list, I can start working on this
project in july

This distribution will be very useful for starter!!

Best regards
Adel
