That's essentially right, although the workflow is not limited to GitHub.
It's also used by Pagure (used by Fedora at https://pagure.io and
https://src.fedoraproject.org) and GitLab (used for example by upstream
GNOME).

This is basically right too, although in Fedora it's complicated because
historically some bits of this were owned by Infrastructure and others by
Release Engineering. We're working on consolidating that all into one team.

Yes, this is right too. Sorry -- it's a big project and so it's hard to
avoid there being lots of different parts.
