Spins that are released over and over again, such as is the case when a spin is released for Fedora 9, then Fedora 10, then Fedora 11, and so forth, fall under the Recurring Spins process.

This process safe-guards that at least somebody looks at the spin itself as well as the Spin page, and prevents major changes to the spin from going unnoticed. It is not like all recurring spins will have to go through the entire review process step-by-step once more.

* At the time of a Fedora Release, all Spins pages are added back to the Spins_in_Development category.
* Spin maintainers add their Spins page back into the Spins_Ready_for_Wrangler category.
* Before Feature Freeze / Spins Freeze, all Spins pages should have been put back in the Spins_Ready_For_SIG category.

The Spins SIG then makes sure there is no significant changes causing the Spin to have to be re-evaluated, and if there's no such major changes, the Spins SIG can then autonomously approve the Spin. There's no further trademark approval required from the Fedora Project Board at this point.

Should there be major changes to a spin, then the process re-enters normal review and approval procedures.
