Web site suggestions.

[Robin Laing]

As many have pointed out before, there are alot of packages and codecs 
that fit nicely for the home user that are not included with Fedora. 
This is for many reasons and most of them have something to do with 
laywers.

My suggestion is a Fedora WWW site that is outside the US as a single 
point of reference for all these different applications and codecs. 
Even if provides decent links to the various sites around the world 
would be better than what many new users have to go through to find 
that codec for MP3's or play DVD's.

Someone that comes from Windows with all their nicely included tools 
can get quite frustrated with searching for that necessary plugin for 
their computer to play DVD's.

A site name suggestion of something like "fedora for the home."  They 
could even mirror the necessary applications or provide an ISO image 
for installation.

It is frustrating when you go to install a package and there is a 
dependency problem and yum cannot find the correct package or you 
don't have the signature for the site.
