The feature process can be very forgiving when there is *information* on 
the feature page about how "testable" a particular feature is or further 
information what is left to be done past feature freeze.

I don't currently have the ability to know what every upstream project 
is doing or know what every developer plans to do "real soon now" ;-) 
Thus it helps to add it to the feature page :)

As a result my goal is to treat every feature page equally, using the 
information that has been provided on each page, in light of the feature 
process that everyone has agreed on.  As always, the feature process is 
not written in stone and if there are ways the current process should be 
amended or changed I'm sure FESCo would be open to constructive 
suggestions to changing it and making it better.
