I'm not sure what you are trying to say. FC4 is not even out yet, and
you are planning for FC5? You talk about "Fedora marketing". I don't
think there is such a thing. Fedora is not a retail product like RHEL
is, so I doubt that anyone is going to spend a lot of money on hiring
marketing people. The marketing is simply word of mouth and web sites.

Anyhow, if it is new applications you are looking for, and if those
applications warrant enough demand from the user base, then they could
be packaged for future releases. In the meantime, you can always build
them yourself and install them for your machine.
