It sounds like we have plenty to get into a 1.2 release regardless of how
the discussion over MOB goes.

It sounds like we're at consensus for me taking on release manager for the
1.2 line? Presuming that's the case, I'll plan to cut a branch in mid-June
with a goal of getting our first release candidate ready at the start of
July.

In general, for inclusion in the 1.2 release I'd like to ensure features we
include can meet a common standard.

* ITBLL passes with feature off and on under duress
* ACID checks pass with feature off and on under duress
* Some kind of verification that we don't backslide on security features
* Feature docs in ref guide, presuming it is user facing at all
* Operability tools to handle correctness checks and recovery
* Perf analysis with feature off and on for both intended workloads and
baseline

Presuming the above points are handled, I'd be comfortable including
features even if we currently want them labeled "experimental".

Does this sound reasonable as a general gate for branch-1? Is there
anything else we should be insisting on?
