That's a reasonable timeline, except not everyone reads the devel
mailing list so they might have found out only today that there's
something they need to do. I would've done a rebuild in COPR before
announcing and doing it in Fedora and contacted maintainers of FTBFS
packages directly at the same time. You wouldn't have been pressed for
time to merge the side tag quickly, then. It's very easy to automate,
too. See the great talk by Karolina Surma at DevConf 2023:
