If people discuss things and someone's proposal gets dissed/not added it gets listed as "politics and bureaucracy", if it gets accepted "its meritocracy at its best." You see this a lot of times on linux-kernel list (or in the sub-email lists). You also see a heck of a lot of politics about where a patch needs to be fixed up to be included. It just doesn't look like Fedora politics because its not written down and does not have to be relied on ever again.

Ah, but a man's reach should exceed his grasp. Or what's a heaven for? -- Robert Browning -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
