Could we please get one set of answers from FESCO versus each member giving
out slightly different versions which can look contradictory. I realize
that this process is not an easy one, but having different 'stories' can
make it less trustworthy overall.

Also, I  would like to make the following suggestions on what should be
done:

1. Get the tickets which were discussed together
2. Clarify the process of what is really expected of  architecture
maintainers and probably release engineers. Up until now, people who are in
charge of architecture have been given a lot of leeway in packages, koji,
and other areas to make sure that composes can happen everyday.  [Peter has
been the ARM architecture maintainer and helping out release engineering
for years. ]
3. Next clarify the rules and process for proven packagers. I have now read
at least 3 different expectations of package maintenance for proven
packagers so it seems that it is highly unclear to what is allowed.
4. Finally I would highly recommend getting this entire set of events
reviewed by some sort of outside group or organization. They should at
least come up with suggestions on what should have been in place before and
what needs to be in place from now on.
