How would this have helped in this case? The original change proposal was actually
submitted more than 6 months ago! It is just that it took 5 months to finally get to a
vote (with whose outcome one FESCo member was then unhappy).
It wouldn't have helped in this case, but if we are discussing
changing the schedule to avoid holiday conflicts, then I think
moving the "Change Proposal Deadlines" earlier would
be better than shifting the whole schedule a few weeks.
The resubmission, on the other hand, happened one day AFTER the
submission deadline for changes requiring a mass rebuild and hence was already late under
the current process. Pushing the submission deadline earlier would not have changed that.
If we need a rule, then it needs to be that rejected changes cannot be resubmitted for
reconsideration after the change submission deadline. Though FESCo could just vote to
accept the late change anyway, so it would not really help if the resubmission comes from
FESCo itself and if FESCo really wants it to happen. At most it could discourage such late
reconsiderations.
Yes, I agree with this and I actually just proposed this up-thread.
