Another critical point of clarification ... we are *not* moving out of
blueprints at all.  We're still using them for tracking, just as before.
 We are *adding* the use of gerrit for reviewing the design.

Prior to this, we had no tool to assist with doing the actual review of
the spec.  We used blueprint whiteboards, the mailing list, and
discussions in various other places.  We're *adding* the use of gerrit
as a centralized and organized place to do design reviews.

We will continue to use blueprints for tracking what we plan to go into
each release, as well as it's current status.
