I was about to bring it up a couple of times myself but I didn't want to kill the discussion. Fortunately that's a problem with the process and it can be more easily addressed than the general consensus issue.The next time we have a feature discussion we should make sure it's clear that once a decision to include a feature has been made, it has been made... This is probably release manager responsibility, bad me :)
