This proposal is a general framework for which the 'new' community peer group to live in relation to existing Fedora structures. This proposal is not the end of the discussion. Once we make room for the Spin SIG, it must self-organize and it must make a credible attempt to setup a transparent community driven technical review process that the Board can rely on. I'm not going to willingly hand over keys to community compose hosts to anyone before that happens. I don't care if members of RelEng volunteer to act as the button pushers or not.

already provided two Xen guests to do composes on. There are some of us
that have access to them. I used them to spin the XFCE spin.
