Agreed. And if you see we were able to come up with lot of agreements without falling in the typical two Linux traps:

- talking about packaging
- talking about GUI toolkits or desktop environments

We are focusing in the user and the simple problem of finding a cool app and install it. We are using PackageKit to solve technical issues in the current reality of Linux, but if the user gets the software as a Chrome extension or a full self contained image, he will not care, and we will slowly open our minds and leave more and more dogmas out to fulfill this goal.
