It's been a couple days now since I uploaded this, and fedora's advisory
was released a week ago now [0].  Is there someone assigned as the
preparer for this DSA that I should be talking directly to?

I don't really like repeating myself, but I find the DSA process
extremely opaque.  I wish it were possible to have a productive
conversation on improving it.

Best wishes,
Mike
