Most of my open issues are "work in progress" for things that are not completely mission-critical, essentially waiting for the equivalent of a "Creative Christmas Vacation". And yes, this may mean "yet another year". > i don't yet know how to turn this into routine. but i think we > should repeat this each time in the middle between two minor > releases, which would make for a roughly half-yearly cycle. The problem seems to be that for a few people the dashboard gets oversized. That's not necessarily a problem of The System which mostly contains requests not related to those few people. I understand that having an oversized dashboard makes it unusable, but this problem is not solved by imposing yet another process on unrelated changes.
