Hmmm. After reading this para and the stuff you wrote in
https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-devel-list/2008-September/msg02494.html
(¹) I more and more get the impression you assume I was aware of the 
problem in question (email to rel-eng at fedoraproject.org mentioned on 
several wiki pages) for quite a long while already.

That's not the case. I saw the mail from jwb and then just used google 
(search term: "rel-eng at fedoraproject.org site:fedoraproject.org") and 
found important pages that were misleading. I then immediately mailed 
the list. Yes, the first mail I send was a bit unobvious (jwb got the 
message :-) ), but that's why I wrote another one as reply to myself 
immediately after sending the first one ;-)

(¹) I didn't really understand that mail in this context; I thought it 
was not worth discussing this further as it wouldn't lead to anything 
productive, hence I didn't reply.

And note, of course I agree that making other people or groups aware of 
a problem when you spot one is the best for everyone. Most people should 
know that I do that and/or fix things myself immediately as long as that 
makes sense (didn#t make sense here)

P.S.: I hope this sub-thread can now die... It seems just another proof 
  for the statement "sometimes discussing things on mailing lists simply 
doesn't work"
