What was never discussed was whether modules are something worth rebuilding
"an entirely new infrastructure" to begin with. I disagree that they are
even a desirable feature to begin with, they just fragment and thus dilute
the Fedora platform, and have the potential to seriously hurt integration
across the distribution and increase code duplication and its resulting
bloat.
