This is, admittedly, somewhat a case of me being pedantic, so take it with a
grain of salt. But...
In the "Benefit to Fedora" section, the proposal currently reads:
> The benefit to Fedora is that users will have access to the most
> recent command line tooling for working with Amazon Web Services
> features and services. They will have access to new features of the
> CLI as well as consistency in the docker and AWS Cloudshell
> experiences. That means more consistency in pipeline requirements and
> other programmatic access
But... users ALREADY have all of those benefits, don't they? awscli2 is
packaged and available, right now, even in the F38 repo. Users already *have
access* to all of the benefits it brings.
The benefits here are really meant to be the benefits of the proposed change —
IOW, the benefits of *retiring* awscli and *preventing* existing users from
being able to continue using it instead of awscli2... not the benefits of
making awscli2 available.
I don't feel like the current "Benefits" section of the proposal really
addresses that very well, at least as I read it. Fedora is perfectly capable of
having both awscli and awscli2 in the repos simultaneously. (...In fact, it
already does. Although I do notice that, because both packages install the same
binaries (/usr/bin/aws and /usr/bin/aws_completer) and the same Python package
('awscli'), it's impossible to have them both installed **together**. Which
seems like it would make migration more difficult for existing users of awscli,
since it sounds like there are likely to be some incompatibilities?)
