This is only true if a "we" statement can be backed up with a public
mailing list thread where the community reached consensus. (Otherwise
how can one person say "we" and mean anything other than "I" or "me
and some people I talked to in private".)

But I do not think we have that. So these "we" statements sound like
they refer to internal WSO2 consensus.

That's the nub of the problem.

Cool.

But note: it's not that we need to be clearer about our process for
people who are less familiar. It's that decisions to cut milestones
(or releases) need to be taken by the community, and on the dev list.
At the moment, the decisions appear to be unilateral. i.e. Arriving on
the list as foregone conclusions.

So, in this particular instance, a better approach might be to post a
DISCUSS thread proposing a milestone and asking for comments,
feedback, etc.
