Hello! I had a quick look at the draft proposal - I have made a few small corrections here and there. That being said, one other change I did and that I would like to propose is to simply do the full QA process for *every* fwupd release. First of all, it's easier to remember which steps are needed if there is just one verification policy. Secondly - I personally think that the more tests are being performed on an update, the better. So I would like that both switches from 1.3.x to 1.4.x and regular 1.3.x to 1.3.y be following the same tests as outlined in the proposal.
If that is fine, let's get this merged into the firmware-updates page.
