Now that spec freeze has passed, I would like to assess the Design:Approved blueprints and understand how many we could reasonably expect to land in Ussuri.
We completed 25 blueprints in Train. However, mriedem is gone, and it is likely that I will drop off the radar after Q1. Obviously all blueprints/releases/reviews/etc. are not created equal, but using stackalytics review numbers as a rough heuristic, I expect about 20 blueprints to get completed in Ussuri. If we figure that 5-ish of the incompletes will be due to factors beyond our control, that would mean we should Direction:Approve about 25.
As of this writing:
- 30 blueprints are targeted for ussuri [3]. Of these,
- 7 are already implemented. Of the remaining 23,
- 2 are not yet Design:Approved. These will need an exception if they
are to proceed. And
- 19 (including the unapproved ones) have code in various stages.
I would like to see us cut 5-ish of the 30.
While I understand your concerns, I'd like us to stop thinking at the above fact as a problem. What's honestly the issue if we only have, say, 20 specs be implemented ?
Also, why could we say which specs should be cut, if we already agreed them ? And which ones ?
We are a community where everyone tries to work upstream when they can. And it's fine.

I have made an etherpad [4] with the unimplemented blueprints listed
with owners and code links. I made notes on some of the ones I would like to see prioritized, and a couple on which I'm more meh. If you have a stake in Nova/Ussuri, I encourage you to weigh in.
How will we ultimately decide? Will we actually cut anything? I don't have the answers yet. Let's go through this exercise and see if anything obvious falls out, and then we can figure out the next steps.
Thanks, efried
