Do you consider shouting "fire" in a fully crowded theater and to leave people alone in the resulting panic to be an appropriate means? It's at least how I perceived Paul's mail and the subsequent "non-/dis-information policy" FPB, FESCO and RH have exhibited. IMO, the question on which additional/alternative means to inform the public would have been appropriate can not be answered before somebody finally informs the public about what has happened. One thing is for sure: This incident made a structural weakness of "the Fedora system" apparent: Centralism. Whatever might have happened it effectively paralyzed Fedora. > > I do not want to go into this too deeply until the current situation > > has been resolved. > > maybe you should have waited? ;o) Yes, he likely better should have.
