Those aren't the only alternatives. There's also the alternative of the maintainers voluntarily making a change to accommodate feedback. A situation where we have one part of the Fedora community giving unwanted marching orders to the other parts of the Fedora community is not an optimal result. (Where that's happened before on rare occasions, it's never been a good thing.) I'm not saying that FESCo shouldn't have purview over the issue, just that you're really drawing a black and white picture where there's clearly some in-between. -- Paul W.
