Description of problem:
Following my wishlist for Fedora Core:

* Real graphical boot, that means a kernel with enabled bootsplash,
and graphical shutdown.
* Native Widget Forms for OpenOffice (best with GNOME-Dialogs for
open/save)
* Integrated Flash-Plugin or a good apt repository to update
* Integrated Java-Plugin or a good apt repository to update
* Integrated RealPlayer or a good apt repository to update
* changing from up2date to synaptic
* epiphany or firefox as the standard webbrowser
* a good GNOME cd-burning tool (like coaster)
* integration of a spamfilter into evolution
* a mail-virusscanner integrated in evolution and a �normal�
virusscanner with GTK2-gui
* integration of gDesklets
* ready-to-work configuration of VNC after installation
* rar support for file-roller
* integration of anjuta and EVERY recommended package for it
* a good p2p filesharing client like ed2k_gui (overnet)
* good support for usb-storage (a dis-/appearing icon on the desktop
after dis-/connect)
* integration of ndiswrapper and �Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 Driver�
* integration of NTFS support
* /sbin, /bin, /usr/sbin and /usr/bin should be in PATH as standard!!!
* support for Bluetooth HID
* support for Acer Notebooks (with acerhk for example)

Comment 1 Bill Nottingham 2005-03-02 21:51:08 UTC
- bootsplash has been evaluated by the kernel and rejected; moreover, it's not
upstream.
- intel wireless drivers are in FC3
- there is some work being done with OpenOffice.org upstream
- flash, java, RealPlayer, ndiswrapper aren't open source
- NTFS has patent issues
- for VNC, look at vino
- firefox is the default in FC3
- synaptic/apt, gDesklets are all good Extras candidates
   http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras
- /sbin in the default path for non-root is not going to change 

If you have specific change requests for packages, please file those against the
packages affected.
