Hello everybody,
recently, the 5000th PR [1] of the ComplianceAsCode project landed, proposing the Packit CI support. Packit uses the Fedora spec file [2], i.e. source of the RPM package, in the test process.

Does the conversation need to go beyond "default to open"?

Here is a small update of what Packit can / can't do as of January 2020:
In other words, the current purpose of Packit CI is verification whether a package can be built on Fedora, and there is a risk of false positives - different Fedora versions may require different spec files in order to build, which Packit can't handle ATM.
I see no benefit to expose Rawhide spec file in the upstream
project, and I am against exposing it for modification to people
who may not have gotten familiar with Fedora packaging guidelines
and that themselves can't propose Fedora updates.
