We have general guidelines in the absence of application/language-specific
ones.
How do you decide what needs a guideline? Because someone writes up a draft? So
if I write a draft guideline for, say, GNOME packages, and then let it bitrot,
will you block all GNOME packages until someone finalizes my broken guideline?
This would be a very broken process and allow anyone to sabotage Fedora just by
coming up with useless "draft guidelines".
We have general guidelines, we apply these for all new packages where no
specific one exists, I don't see why the mere existence of a draft guideline
would suddenly change that.
