Why would I bother to do anything if is very likely that Walter don't want
to go that direction and all my work was done for nothing? Been there
before. Now I'm more cautious when selecting my battles.
One thing I want to do is enshrine a vetting mechanism that would
allow Walter and myself to "pre-approve" enhancement requests.
Someone (including us) would submit an enhancement request to
Bugzilla, and then Walter and I add the tag "preapproved" to it.
That means an implementation of the request has our approval
assuming it has the appropriate quality.
That should reduce the cognitive load ("am I working for nothing
over here?") on the proponent of the feature and would also motivate
the proponent to define the feature with reasonable completeness
before implementing it.
I think that would help a *LOT*. So basically this tag would mean
something like: If somebody implement this AND the implementation is
complete AND it has good quality, it will be in the next release?
Yah, that's the idea.
If so, that's not too far from roadmap.
It's less structured than a roadmap but maybe that's what would make it
tenable!
