Back on the original question, i think it's reasonable of end users (like me) to expect an explanation for the removal of packages, and preferably an alternative recommended. I've got this list so far in terms of removed packages and their alternatives: * ee: eog, gqview, kuickshow, nautilus, konqueror, or gimp * gnorpm: redhat-config-packages Can these be listed in the release notes so that people know where to start looking for replacements? Here are some others i think would be worth mentioning: * elm, metamail: mutt * gnome-pim: evolution? * ical: evolution? * netscape: mozilla, konqueror * pump: dhcpclient * rxvt: xterm * xlockmore: xscreensaver? * kaffe: gcj? * fvwm2: sawfish/kwm/whatever And here's my list of unexplained removals: * gnomeicu * jikes Where i can ask about these?
