Well, I mean, I agree there are potentially other approaches to granting
things like fedorapeople access and so on, but any change like that
would be a big one which would likely involve lots of proposing and
arguing and take a lot of time.

I personally am not interested in driving such a change. The mechanics
of FAS group membership and so on are not, in and of themselves,
interesting to me, so this isn't something I want to work on. All I'm
trying to do is remove a speedbump for new QA group members that we keep
encountering, in the most simple and obvious way: currently the way the
Fedora project is set up, it expects members of Fedora groups/projects
like QA to be in a FAS group, so let's just do that.
