For in-sync schedules, this would be definitely better solution. 

Otherwise, we have pretty nice setup how to deal with schedules. It would
need more decentralization aka using git as much as possible, publishing
is already handled as group (that time to make easier transition for
new schedule wrangler). And for example websites are able to automatically
pick up important milestones, fedocal integration etc.

So I'd say even with out of sync schedules, some kind of centralized 
storage and process would be nice to have, even more people will be
involved and I'll (or any future schedule wrangler) be ready to help.

One process is Change process - other thing PGM is (was) running in the
Fedora.old releases. The updated version was already created with SIGs
in mind (FESCo limited it a bit). Should be easy to adjust to fit WGs
but still FESCo wants some control as it was discussed on the meeting.

This is a bit out of scope of Workstation WG only but I'd like to hear
opinions from all WGs, how they feel about it, what they would like to
see etc.
