The Spins process seems to be be fairly well documented with respect to 
the role of wrangler, the board and the submitter. However, currently 
this process falls down due to the fact that the Watch feature of the 
fedoraproject wiki clearly does not work. Is this supposed to?

I would think the Spins process could be fairly well described in the 
spins-kickstart trac from the submitters perspective. An extra field in 
the ticket (Ready for Wrangler, Ready for SIG, etc) Was that the 
original intention rather than using the wiki?

This creates another initial body of work (updating trac and editing all 
the documentation).
