And, having read the mails, rightly so. Bad timing. But hey, you can't stay
bitter all your life.

Havoc, coincidentally, is guilty of exactly the same thing (though, he is
trying to take advantage of post-GUADEC-hangover energies)... We're back in
UI Review period, and it would be FAR more productive for everyone on the
usability list to focus on current issues, because we only have until August
4 to get UI Review changes in.

When the UI Review period is over, any responsibility / commitment that the
GUP wants to have in the release process is well and truly spent, so by all
means, let's do some serious thinking then, before 2.4 is even out. That way
we can be ahead of the curve for 2.6.

Well spent monkeycrap, then and now.
