After the meeting we had in Chicago, we're in the midst of a transition phase where - subject to the adoption of the new governance model - PO will be abolished for committers to make the kind of decision you describe. This includes the option for everyone to call the attention to features you consider indispensable. However, if there's no one to share your view and/or to have the resources to implement, the feature will be shelved until someone considers it so unacceptable he or she will make a move. > And may I ask what you would do with an iTunes U/Youtube distribution service > when you couldn't edit metadata?

If not, Nelson Muntz will gibe you a "HA-HA University XY has typos > in > iTunes U because it uses Matterhorn" ;-) I'm afraid that's not the only "Ha-ha" we could get from Nelson, so you better have Martin [1] allocate your metadata without typos for the moment. I'm sure someone distributing (to iTunes U or other channels) will have to move as soon as you misspelled the dean's name. Regards Olaf A.
