Brett, thanks for the comments.  I put some responses in line.

Sure, will remove it.

That's good.  The presence of those columns makes the proposal a bit of a 
moving target -- either we edit them as we make progress on the unacceptable 
dependencies or the document becomes out of date.   I will remove them and 
start a separate, active document to track progress.

Yes, Will and Sheng are both influential.   Will does engineering management at 
Citrix and so has input on the day-day activities of many of the initial 
committers.  Sheng provides input on longer term direction for the project 
based on his observations across the industry.  Both will have opinions on how 
the project should be run.
