The kickstart file is maintained in the spin-kickstarts git repository by
the spin maintainer(s) (for KDE, that's Sebastian Vahl from KDE SIG). At
least for the KDE spin, the maintainer also occasionally makes snapshot
images available for testing. The maintainer is responsible for having a
working kickstart file in the repository at the time of the release.

When preparing any release (Alpha, Beta, Preview, RC, GA), Fedora's lead
release engineer (Jesse Keating) builds the official images from the
current kickstart file in the spin-kickstarts git repository.
