Sounds really good, as it leaves room for other omega variants :-)

I didn't mean you to do that. That why I wrote "ideally" ;-)

We nevertheless IMHO once again should ask in public (blog and 
spins-list maybe?) if somebody want to do a KDE spin with RPM Fusion 
before we do one with Gnome -- then we can point users that complain 
"why don't you hvae a KDE spin" there and tell them "nobody volunteered".

Note that there is a "ideally" as well.

But again: We don't allow packages that haven't been reviewed. Why 
should we allow spins that haven't been reviewed?

I'd say so, because the reasons for not including libdvdcss in a spin 
are the same as for not including them in the repo.
