</div>I think there are (at least) two different types of "minimal" that could<br>
(and should) be provided.<br>
<br>
1) "working server minimal" which would have at least yum and sshd --<br>
this could be similar to what we do for minimal now, though I'm not<br>
totally opposed to shrinking it down a bit more.<br>
<br>
2) "really really minimal -- and we mean minimal!" -- where the goal is<br>
to strip out as much as possible, no docs, no yum, no ssshd, etc.<br>
<br>
I don't have a use for (2) personally, but use (1) -- or at least one of<br>
my own making -- quite frequently. I'd be happy if we could keep both.<br>
