  As a semi-outsider, I would like to see the Fedora community set
standards for excellence. There are certain tradeoffs that can be
avoided, if decisions are carefully made. A careful selection of
packages would also help prevent packager workloads from increasing
significantly over time, and various issues regarding unmaintained
packages could probably also be avoided, if careful precaution is
taken through the judgement of individual packagers.

  I believe this would be the best way to improve the culture of
Fedora moving forward, since it will make the distribution as a
whole more robust.
