What I'm really looking forward to - why I thought I'd poke around, thus 
that question - is RDP in Wayland.

When it get's into RHELs I worry be ages and I'd really love to try to 
introduce Linux desktops to those really dumb and unreformable users.

Everything else - frequent updates, etc. These can be as rare as we 
users want them, another extra bit of time to think of it would not kill 
me, personally.

Also, we all know, what is in those Fedoras(maybe more so when it comes 
to "server" variant) is going to end up in our Centoses - why not help 
by using/testing those, I ask myself. Especially now with 29 which I 
suspect might be our Centos main new version.

So I'm thinking.. I'll start mixing that Fedora Server in.
