Does the Fedora Community welcome Re-spins?

Hi, I've been a Linux user for 6 month, I was just wondering does the Fedora Community welcome re-spins of Fedora?, I ask because over at the Ubuntu Community they don't welcome re-spins, if the Fedora Community welcomes re-spins I will love to use Fedora instead .

Hmm well, a package to make the changes would save a reinstall if someone wanted to try it out

but then you'd probably end up with another autoten or the other one (I cant think of right now)

but anyway, I i guess they're all options which is what linux is all about, I'm sure someone would try it whichever route you went down.

Oh and there's another spin I forget to mention, Omega (Pug)

http://omega.dgplug.org/

that ones got all the codecs and media stuff in it already

edit: look here also, http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Remix

Could use kickstart that would install only the packages you want at install time, if you don't want to use re-spins.

Camberwell mentioned Autoten, I overlooked the the other one as well, my bad, which was named, EasyLife. Both are great utitlity to do the dirty work for you. You can search this forum for EasyLive and Autoten.

The Fedora Unity project also does re-spins, and no-one seems to mind ... although I haven't seen any for F11.

ojuba is another fedora respin. Dont let Arabic website and Islamic theme fool u. Ojuba is multi language. DVD install is same like fedora DVD install. One great ojuba feature is Ojuba Control Panel.
