I like this.

I'd suggest that for most things the order doesn't matter. However, if the PPB 
discusses big things first, perhaps we can limit the scope of the discussion 
and therefore actually get more consensus from the community. For example, with 
VCS discussions, the community discussion could be limited to A vs B rather 
than "What's teh new hotness that all the ninja rockstar programmers are using?"
