Right - I didn't mean that we shouldn't have a mechanism, only that it
should be more of a continuous process.

Personally I wouldn't mind having a completely automated process for
new packages that puts them into an rpmfusion- / copr-type opt-in repo
at first, and then allows them to be moved towards the main repo as
they pass a mix of manual and automatic verification (with possibly
packages moving in the opposite direction too).
