I am going to say that this is a bigger sticking point than people are
realising and this is not a F36 but a F37 change.

The changes to koji, signing infrastructure and testing have to be put
in place before January 19 2022 (2022-01-19) for the mass rebuild[1].
They need to have been in staging and testing before then so that bugs
could be worked out and various groups could work things out.  Due to
various end of year holidays and 'use your PTO before its lost'
schedules, many of the developers who could sign off on the changes to
koji/bodhi/whatever-testing/sigul/etc depending on the changes needed
are not going to be available. Even if the changes are trivial ones,
this is a very short window to land things.

At best for F36, I could see the changes getting put into Fedora
before the beta and some packages signed.

If you want this for F37, then all that work needs to be ready and
done by (2022-07-20)[2].
