It occurs to me that this may have come out sounding a lot harsher than I
meant it. I'm certainly not implying that Scott is a bonehead, that's
obviously not the case. This situation actually is very different than
other release engineering concerns, which is why I'm saying, "stop and
think" about it.

It also occurred to me that part of the problem here is that I failed to
make these differences clear in my original post. I think it's just a case
of being so close to the code that I had assumed it was obvious to
everyone. :)

Hope this helps,

Doug
