Decision made in PO today: we will scope Delete story for this iteration to
MH-6899 (As an admin, I want to delete a Failed recording, so that it no longer
clutters the UI nor takes up disk space.)
I have changed the voting spreadsheet accordingly (i.e. replaced story number
and summary, leaving votes as they were).
Just being transparent,
Judy
