Though I agree that the release team cannot put any foundation document aside, I don't think the release team is overriding the social contract, but chooses a certain interpretation (that I think is the correct one btw). Other people obviously prefer a different interpretation, and so the relevant question is: Whose interpretation is the binding one? Currently, it seems to me that unless decided otherwise by a GR, the release team has the final say (as explained by Russ).
