From the sidelines it seems that there is a confusion on what the %

and all known and cared about bugs are fixed".
My understanding was the later. All working tested and ready to go.
What is it meant to mean.
Yeah, I think this is sort of an issue with pushing everything down
to a simple number.

In my view, '100%' would mean "I'm done with this, and not touching
it modulo bugs." It can have a lower percentage and still be testable.

So really, we need 2 things.

1) a definition of a status that the feature wrangler and FESCo agree
upon to be "done enough" for Alpha / Feature Freeze.

2) a % number that indicates #1



All we need to do to fix #1 is clarify the policy which the Feature Wrangler seeks to follow and help administer. It has always been a percentage to measure the completeness of implementing the feature as described on the feature page.

We seek to been feature complete (100%) or "testable" (no percentage defined in the current policy--this would address #2) at Feature Freeze so those features can be tested in the test releases (Alpha & Beta).
