Did you ever thing, maybe for a second, that people are busy and they view this as important and _don't_ want to draft a half-assed policy with a bunch of holes in it? You've now opened this discussion with NO insight to what a proposed policy would be. You've left out parts that were discussed in the meeting as options (like mechanisms to allow direct-to-stable pushes with FESCo/rel-eng/QA karma), and you've generally painted this as "FESCo WANTS TO TELL YOU THAT THEY KNOW BETTER THAN YOU". Not only that, but you're undermining your fellow FESCo members and not even waiting for the full policy to come out simply because you don't seem to think any such policy could ever be suitable for you. Great, if you don't agree with it then vote against it. But you should at least let those interested in having a discussion on this come forward and present their OWN ideas/policies without you already campaigning against it. Transparency in process is great and I think it is extermely important. What you've done is not transparency. What you've started is a smear campaign against a draft policy that hasn't even been written yet. Way to be a class-A dickhead. josh -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
