I am aware of this but our policies have changed and either they need to
get a exception and we should stop this.  We can't let individual
maintainers, regardless of legacy, override our consensus on how Fedora
should work without any consideration of how the distribution is put
together.  It is disrespectful of contributors who do follow the policy
even if they have disagreements with it.

FESCo is the entity which can have that conversation with Glibc upstream
on behalf of Fedora.  Who else can?
