I hope that you’ll comment on some of the decisions made for 7.10. In particular, I’m thinking of Strigi and Dolphin. Strigi seems not ready for prime time, and I wonder why Kubuntu saw it as having advantages over Beagle. Dolphin seems much less robust than Konqueror, so why make the substitution?

More generally, then, my point is that you might address the decision making process and its follow up. And what happens if the consensus is that the decision was wrong? How is input sought from the end user?

Make sure you remind me to tell you the secret
