[Mageia-dev] Identifying Target Markets

I see that this thread has become a collection of
+"No, THIS is what is meant by that word."
+"Why is the list broken?"
+"Allow me to re-state what I have re-stated many times"
+"I like this feature, so that's what we should do."
+"I am an expert, so this is what we should do."
+"The problem is <some unrelated problem>."
+"The fix is <some application or feature>."
+
+Not very productive.
+Difficult to follow.
+Mostly redundant.
+
+We can make guesses about Target Markets all we want, but it won't
+amount to much without some valid market research (which none of us
+has done for Mageia).
+
+Why is conjecture and speculation of value? Where are the facts and
+numbers to support a position? Where is any kind of analysis of a
+propose market?
+
+That is where this discussion should start. Until then, we are wasting
+our time unless the entire point of all this is simply an exercise in
+egocentrism.
