I emphatically agree with that. If the RMT is to accomplish its purpose, it must be able to exert authority even when an individual contributor doesn't like the decisions it makes. On the other hand, nothing in the open item policy the current RMT has adopted prohibits you from using judgement about when and how vigorously to enforce that policy in any particular case, and I would encourage you to do so. It didn't make much sense to keep sending Kevin increasingly strident form letters about each individual item when he wasn't responding to any emails at all, and it makes equally little sense to me to nag someone over a technical failure to include a date when things are obviously progressing adequately.
