So, your proposal is that FESCo (and possibly the Board) - which you
excoriate for not being sufficiently elected for your tastes - be
replaced by the SIGs, entirely informal and entirely unelected groups
with no formal place in Fedora's governance structure at all?

Oh, yes, that's going to work well.

How do we decide which SIGs trump which other SIGs if they disagree? How
are SIGs - groups which are by their very definition based around
certain specific interests - supposed to set distro-wide policies for
packaging? Why are groups which anyone can join (or, alternatively,
which can choose their membership based on any criteria at all) better
qualified to run the project than a board, and committees, to which
people are elected by vote of project members?
