No, this is not the same thing. I wrote the draft last week, but the
guidelines change dates back to March (and does not address the gtk-doc
issue). That change originated from User:Notting/DirectoryDraft. It was
approved by the FPC and ratified by FESCo. It was announced in the
"[Guidelines Change] Changes to the Packaging Guidelines 04/09 - 02/10"
email, sent all over the place on 03/03/2010.

My draft (Revised_File_and_Directory_Ownership) came from my
conversations on #rpm.org with the RPM upstream and various folks
involved in the gtk-doc discussion. It has not yet been considered by
the FPC or FESCo, but I am happy to take comments on it, as I do plan to
propose it in its current state.
