So, to summarize: * A draft for FPC wasn't resolved because there were some unanswered questions and a next-draft policy proposal never written. * There was a proposal for FESCo to ban use until policy exists, and that proposal was droppped pending knowing how DNF will use them. I think in general we can't possibly consider lack of guidelines on something as a ban, because the world is big and moves quickly. It *would* be nice to have guidelines, and if packages do something before there are guidelines for it, they should be brought into compliance once guidelines *do* exist. -- Matthew Miller <mat...@fedoraproject.org> Fedora Project Leader -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
