The "Request for Comments: Proposed changes to Fedora development cycle" for example got posted on "Date: Tue, 16 Oct 2007 10:24:48 -0400" here https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2007-October/msg01206.html You received feedback from some people, including from Hans, Me and some others. On "# Date: Fri, 26 Oct 2007 13:52:34 -0400" you in https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2007-October/msg02295.html announced "Potential changes to Fedora development cycle" with the words: "The release engineering team as put together a proposed set of development cycle changes [1] that could affect Fedora 9 development. This proposed set of changes has been reviewed on fedora-devel-list and other lists for a period of time and input has been incorporated as best it could. Now it's coming time for FESCo to vote on adopting the new development cycle." I looked in the wiki what actually got changed between the two points of time; that's afaics from http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ReleaseEngineering/DevelopmentChangesProposal?action=info this diff: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/ReleaseEngineering/DevelopmentChangesProposal?action=diff&rev2=11&rev1=4 I'd call that some clarifications in the text to make the proposal more clear. But sorry, I would not call that "input has been incorporated as best it could."
