Speaking of releng tickets, any thoughts on moving https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/764 forward? I hope with that we can both avoid last-minute surprises like this and make how the images are produced more transparent and consistent.
There has been some progress, we have some resources to use now, and some space to put things. Getting it automated is going to be looked at after beta.
That said, making a Live image is dirt simple. It requires a rawhide system, and some disk space. That's it. Given that the desktop team owns the config for this (so I'm told) it would interest your team in at least doing some manually or requesting some done manually as we near deadlines (before rather than after..) (:
I had spent a bit of time on it a few weeks ago which resulted in the gnome-games-help split and a few other bits but - I agree; we dropped (or at least weren't watching) the ball on this lately.
I do think going forward the right way to approach this is going to be systemic changes like changelog/%doc and even longer term localized distribution rather than cutting functionality. But I'll take another look today to see whether there are some localized changes that can be made.
