Secondary Arches Proposal

 * FESCo approved spot's secondary arches proposal.

Core Merge Reviews

 * FESCo approved a proposal to make the core merge reviews a Blocker item for F9. warren will make sure that we have buy-in for this goal from RedHat management for engineering time.
 * FESCo will plan a few merge review days (one probably being during the virtual FUDCon) during the F8 development cycle.
