Guys,

Let's just remove the word "Desktop" and say something like:

"To build a free and stable distribution (read Releases) for all users of Fedora."

This covers people that want stability in servers, desktops and anything in between and still keeps everything open for spins etc to make the 'flavours' that they want to (Server, Desktop, KDE....).
