I've asked Alexander to mock up a picture of this to explain what he wants, and I also think James W. and I exchanged email about this asking ourselves if this is a project group multi-milestone view or something else. > - The prediction of whether a deliverable can happen in > this month or not is difficult.

We're > struggling with this uncertainty I think this has two parts to it: one, where you're building something new that you are unsure will be accepted upstream. Another, where you submit a patch that would be accepted but upstream is unresponsive for a while. For the former, I've proposed we carefully lay the work plan out and prototype quickly. For the latter, I think that's a corner case and it's acceptable for something to slip delivery if the maintainer was really unresponsive despite multiple attempts of escalating it. > - Joey > - Some TLs have issues with a monthly PPR call. > - Asac - if we do a good job with the planning report then we > should not need one.
