It that exception automatic ? I thought it had to be explicitly
requested from FPC ? eg in 

 https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging_Committee#Review_Process_Exemption_Procedure

It says:

  "The FPC can grant exceptions to the normal package review process.
   This may happen, for instance, if a large number of similar packages
   are being submitted at once or if a package is being updated to a
   new major version while the old version is being kept in the
   distribution with a different name.
   ..
   Just file a ticket here, set the component to "Review Process Exception"
   and explain (with detail) why you're requesting the exemption and the
   committee will consider it in the next meeting. "

So gimp3 falls under the 2nd example documented there, but still sounds
like an FPC ticket was needed ?

With regards,
Daniel
