Comment (by MikeSchinkel):

 Replying to [comment:13 dd32]:
 > The concern is that !WordPress includes external libraries such as
 SimplePie and PHPMailer, Fedora, amongst others, states that external
 libraries such as these are not permitted to be included within a Package,
 "!WordPress" package in this instance.

 That makes sense now. Thanks for explaining.

 > I'm not against making life easier for those maintaining !WordPress
 packages, I'm just against making a change which potentially makes
 !WordPress not as stable, or as user friendly as it already is.

 Understood, and agree on the principle.  But if the result is they fork it
 and make it less stable, wouldn't in principle it be best to find some
 middle ground to minimize the impact?

 With that I'll leave this ticket because I clearly missed the part you
 explained about the bundling so now realize I don't have experience with
 all the issues.
