QA has governance too. Whether a group governs itself informally by
consensus in meetings or by organizing a steering committee or by a
self-forming group of interested and skilled contributors like the
packaging committee isn't the important part of governance. But in all
of those cases in Fedora those doing the work make the decisions, not
some other committee from on high.
