I want to make sure I understand what you're proposing. You're
suggesting that we shift from having the branch point be a defined,
specific date in the schedule to having it be a range of possible
options. So it would be more like the Beta and GA releases where we
target a day, but slip if we're not ready. Is this right?

So how recent of a rawhide compose qualifies? If there's a successful
compose in the last week, is that okay? Does it have to be the night
before the branch point? Are there other judgments that go into (like
in the go/no-go meeting) or is it entirely based on the compose?

My initial reaction is that this in an outlier and that we shouldn't
make structural changes to the schedule in response to outliers, but I
wonder if there are other guardrails we can put in place. Perhaps by
making consistent compose failures more visible to the community?

I expect FESCo will want to wait until the community has had an
opportunity to discuss this first. I suggest waiting a week or so
(depending on how long the conversation remains productively active)
and then filing a FESCo ticket.
