Well, I do post the instructions with the FPC agenda that I post to
fedora-devel-list before every meeting:
  Read https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Committee#Guideline_Change_Procedure,
  Make a draft
  Add it to https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/PackagingDrafts/DraftsTodo

But fear not, because I made sure it came up at our meeting on
Tuesday.  Basically, the concept is sound but we'd like to see it in
the form of a set of packaging guidelines, and we'd like the changes
to the perl provides behavior that are hidden down in the macro file
to be split out and discussed separately.
