At the time you seemed to defend your decision really aggressively[1], although the GR 2004-003 disagreed with your interpretation of the effect of Editorial amendments GR to sarge. Looking backwards, do think your decission to implement the GR immeadetly even thou sarge was already 4 month late was a mistake? What do you think you have learned from the whole episode? How would you avoid similar escalation patterns in future?
