Hi,

is there any process in place for moving bits from JDS to userland? I
was thinking about possibility to update some JDS bits (with specs, of
course). And I need to know which bits I could remove from JDS. Could
anybody responsible for hipster release engineering talk to me about it?

As for conflicting bits - gnome/locale/xxx should be obsoleted in
hipster already so I do not know which conflict you see. But I did not
try hipster yet so I have no idea what's broken there.

Best regards,

Milan
