Even with FESCo and the Packaging Committee (they are practically on the same level currently, so none of the two can give the other orders [yes, we normally should not give orders, but sometimes it might be helpfull]) there were some situations where one was pointing to the other "you have to solve this particular issue". That was a bit problematic, and I'd like to avoid a similar situations in the future as much as possible. > The release cabal needs a stable > set of packages to build the releases from and the repo cabal would need > to enforce that.

It should be clear that it remains FESCo's job to enforce the stuff the packaging committee decides. But FESCo should be able to say "Packaging Committee, work out rules for foo, as we have a packaging problem here that needs to be solved, and you guys know best about this kind of stuff is handled" > [...] CU thl -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
