One either plays nice or not. Frankly, if someone feels that they don't think it important to play nice (and do the right thing, imo), I would rather they not be involved in this project.
I mean really, EPEL is not "Joe's EPEL" it is "Fedora EPEL" and if Fedora as a whole can't/won't adopt this proposal, why should it be our burden? We are simply lower minions of the entire Fedora hierarchy working specifically on EPEL.
I think Axel's proposal still has merit, but the right thing is to throw it to FPC. And nothing in the vote says that he can't. In fact, I hope he does.
