Ok, this policy was for the other case, a case when the maintainer
does not respond. I am not saying that it happens a lot, but it
happened in the past, and the syslog-ng case exposed in the thread is
another recent case. Maybe a policy is not needed and a case by 
case handling by escalation to FESCo is enough, though. In my
days as a Fedora contributor, however, this issue was annoying
enough that I proposed the policy, maybe things have changed
now.
