Not that I like more bugs, but I wonder if it might be useful to have two more tracker bugs: * Compose breaking - Something that causes the compose to fail (ie, makes it so a required deliverable isn't made) and * Basic release critera breaking - Something got through the automated testing for whatever reason (we don't automatedly (is that a word) test it yet, or the test wasn't complete or something). The reason I think these might be useful is so we can look at them and see what broke things in the past and slipped past tests so we can improve them. Also, if we can upfront test some of the compose ones we might have less failures. Not a big deal, just a thought... (note that these would just be trackers not blockers, since as you point out there is nothing to block. ;) > * There is a problem with what to do about the Change schedule: our two > sources for it don't actually agree on what the schedule *is*.
