However when it comes to a community controlled project like Fedora who is the deciding authority of what is acceptable, unacceptable and what may go into the distro?

IMO, community projects such as NetBeans, Debian has community-chosen
(based on proven performance, contribution) moderators/leaders who act
as the consenting authority to accept contributions.
