I'd like to see extra covverage in the one week periods before the alpha,
beta and final development freezes. You kind of need to keep an eye on
things the whole time, as changes in other areas of Fedora can break your
spin in various ways. But the above times are good times to be doing a closer
look to see if problems have cropped up.

I don't know the answer to this one.

This is going to depend on the spin. I am not sure if all of the spins
owners have fast links. So it would be best to figure at least a day.
We haven't had mandatory confirmation required in the past. Is this something
you are thinking we should do for F14?
