Hi,
The list of packages still exists, [1], though it needs to be updated. I started working on the spin , the initial size is around 1000MB, still all fonts need to be put in. I need help on verifying the fonts list and adding the missing names to it.
Also having a customized generic-logos package should be used as this is * the design team* :)
Please share your ideas.

DejaVu were needed? aren't they pulled by Desktop already?
A few more font suggestions: - brettfont-fonts - chisholm-letterlaughing-fonts - google-droid* - inkboy-fonts - serafettin-cartoon-fonts - sil-gentium* - silkscreen* - sj-*
If you base it on F12 Desktop spin, then i believe you don't need to remove tomboy and add gnote, also i believe you don't need to remove f-spot.
Also AFAIK now cheese is part of the default install (the PackageManifest was really old) and ImageMagick should be checked for availability too.
I am sure Tatica will ask for MakeHuman and Martin may suggest the scripts for publishing Echo icons.
How much KOffice dependencies are brought-in by koffice-krita?
Updated with the latest .ks file. Added few fonts. Latest size is 1018 MB
In general, gnote is a better alternative to tomboy since it has far fewer dependencies (~30MB download, ~80MB installed).
Please include an image organizer also - gthumb and digikam are good options if we look at non-mono. Both can import photos from digicams quite conveniently.

Look at the kickstart file, gnote is already included.

I *hope* gThumb is still part of the Desktop spin we are using as a base... I would prefer it above digikam considering the spin is mostly GNOME/gtk+.

Solang (which is a F-Spot alternative) works as well.

But in my experience a new application which hasn't yet reached a level of maturity to rely on.

I use it a F-Spot alternative now just for testing. Whether they intended to explicit serve that use case, I can't say.

The list of packages still exists, [1], though it needs to be updated. I started working on the spin , the initial size is around 1000MB, still all fonts need to be put in.
I don't think the size of a CD is a realistic target, so we have to go for something bigger, and target DVDs/USB drives. A 1000MB worth of data and some more hundreds of live persistence in the case of USB drives... maybe we should thing about a total of 2GB? A design spin is intended for advanced users, probably we don't have to think about people with hardware on the lower end?
I need help on verifying the fonts list and adding the missing names to it.
I am thinking it may be a good idea to rethink the approach for this spin: in the proposed package manifest (which is old and in need of a refresh anyway) we crammed all the art related application we could think of. Maybe is better to start small and go with baby steps? Like at first define a list of "must have" killer applications (like gimp, inkscape, scribus, pitivi, audacity) and just add them on top of the desktop spin. There is absolute mess in the "Other Packages to look at" section.
As for a comprehensive list of fonts, we can start with:
yum search font
Also having a customized generic-logos package should be used as this is * the design team* :)
I am pretty much against doing something like http://ubuntustudio.org/. We are doing a Fedora spin and I think it must look and feel like any Fedora: the same artwork and as much as possible the same defaults (however, I think some defaults on the Desktop spin we will use as a base are wrong and the install DVD has a better set of defaults to follow).

Sorry, I mixed up my idea of a custom spin in this case. Fedora spins should come fedora-logos package only.

Yup, the list needs to be updated. Also, I think it's good idea to rename the spin (in accordance with our move from Fedora Artwork to Fedora Design Team) to Fedora Design Live (or something like that). On quick look I haven't spotted any non linear video editor, IIRC pitivi is in Fedora repos and thus might be a good candidate. Also for screencasts most people probably use istanbul, might be a better choice than byzanz.
I'll look at the package list (both in kickstart and the PackageManifest) more in depth later.

I am biased on that, considering my first encounter with a graphic editor was "The Art Studio" for Sinclair Spectrum[1], I am excessively fond of this name.

Yes, PiTiVi is a must... I also wanted to propose it but got carried and forgot.

Well, both: they serve different use cases and each if useful in its own way.

I don't think the spin needs to be named after our team, it just needs to attract the type of user we are seeking no?
To save some space, I believe there is a group of folks working on an audio studio spin, so we could drop those packages and maybe the video packages too. Just focus on graphic design and maybe we could get a decent sized spin.

Ah I forgot to add one idea - I'm wondering as lame as it sounds if there is a way maybe out-of-the-box, if we can squeeze it into a CD size, if the studio could have icons on the desktop you could click on to install the rest, e.g., 'Click here to install audio-editing tools!' 'Click here to install 3D tools!'

Not lame but somewhat useless, it will be basically the Desktop spin plus GIMP and a list of links. Why someone would want that instead of just the Desktop spin and a bunch of links?

We don't overlap with them, an audio spin will need things like Jack audio server and specialized tools, for them Audacity is something for beginners. The basic desktop minus whatever we can take out plus GIMP, Inkscape and Scribus and we are well above the limit of a CD, is hopeless IMO to try keeping the size down below 1GB.

Well, and would be the target of the spin?
Yep, it does not need to be named after our team, but 'design' covers wider audience are than just 'art', although it's still probably a little limited. Really, depending on the audience we'll target it at, we might want to have * good support for devices like scanners, printers, cameras, wacom tablets, ... * graphics editors (gimp, inkscape, ...) * photo management tools * decent audio software (recording, editing) * decent video software ( --||-- , screen-casting) * burning software (to burn your audio CDs, videos, photos) * desktop publishing/typesetting software (inkscape, scribus, OOo, TeX, ...) * web-design related software (partly overlaps with graphics editors) * other multimedia management * various utilities like ImageMagick * content (brushes, wallpapers, showcase window/widget themes, templates, showcase icon themes, palettes, clip-art, ...)
If we included most of this list, the best name would probably be something like Fedora Creativity Spin XD

I think this is expected as a default for a desktop spin
* graphics editors (gimp, inkscape, ...)
sure
* photo management tools
Well, for design is very likely you must acquire a photo somehow and use it as a starting element in the design process (be it photo manipulation or vectorization).
* decent audio software (recording, editing) * decent video software ( --||-- , screen-casting)
Also can go hand-in-hand with the design process: for example you create a screencast showing the process to create some graphics.
* burning software (to burn your audio CDs, videos, photos)
A given in a decent desktop spin.
* desktop publishing/typesetting software (inkscape, scribus, OOo, TeX, ...) * web-design related software (partly overlaps with graphics editors)
Closely related to the design part: you don't create/edit graphics only for the sake of working with them, but to use further on print or web.
* other multimedia management * various utilities like ImageMagick
For me ImageMagick is a valuable tool for photo management.
* content (brushes, wallpapers, showcase window/widget themes, templates, showcase icon themes, palettes, clip-art, ...)
...fonts, maybe stock photos, etc. Indeed, useful to have handy

Which does sound like a legit name/target. "Design" sounds a bit restrictive, but probably "Creativity" or "Art Studio" are more encompassing.

Well, I think maybe it's more to cater to different artist types, e.g., I am primarily a 2D artist, I don't use 3D apps and I hardly ever use video and audio editing tools.

Maybe it's a silly idea but I don't know if I'd want *everything* on an initial install... but I would like it to be easier to get more of the artsy tools, right now it's scavenger-hunt in yum and that's not fun.

+1 As the name "Creative Suite" you do not think a very back of the Adobe Creative Suite? I think "Art Studio" is not so original, because there is the Ubuntu Studio, but it would be far more of a name of a proprietary software.

The specific names aren't important right now, I just wanted to gauge interest in the idea of having an 'everything' spin and having smaller, more focused spins.

Providing a lot of these, through our experiences and whatnot, will also serve as a window to introduce creative people new to Fedora/FOSS to the plethora of available packages, many that they may not have known existed.

When installing the spin, you won't get in Anaconda a step where you can select/deselect some packages?

Assuming the spin is a Live image, no. You get an exact copy of the Live image's bits installed to your drive, but you can change them as much as you want afterward of course.

The list of packages still exists, [1], though it needs to be updated. I started working on the spin , the initial size is around 1000MB, still all fonts need to be put in. I need help on verifying the fonts list and adding the missing names to it.
Also having a customized generic-logos package should be used as this is * the design team* :)
Please share your ideas.
Coincidentally enough I tried several times to build an art studio spin last night but livecd-creator keeps failing:
/usr/lib/python2.6/site-packages/imgcreate/errors.py:45: DeprecationWarning: BaseException.message has been deprecated as of Python 2.6 return unicode(self.message) Error creating Live CD : Dependency check failed!
I've attached the kickstart file I used - any ideas?

Few hours back juhp was complaining with the same issue on #fedora-devel. I never saw any solution to this.

This is why the studio never got created in the first place. :( this happened to me both in revisor and livecd-tools and I never found an answer then. My original original ks file from Fedora *8* :)

I think I figured it out - looking in baobab it looks like I have no hard disk space left (although I would imagine my machine to be in more rough shape if it were really bad but I bet it's missing deps because they couldn't fit)

Okay so I don't think disk space is an issue. I split out a new 20 GB logical volume specifically to built this today, it fails in the same exact way and the cache directory only takes up 727MB.
I'm out of ideas :(

I had to fix a couple minor package differences, but this KS file worked for me using F11 repos. (You may need to reset the repo directives at the top.)

I'd expect an art spin to include all the distribution font packages :p
Otherwise, you should at least install dejavu-*, liberation-*, google-droid-*, linux-libertine-* and all the sil-*-fonts and gfs-*-fonts
