Fair enough. You still haven't answered my question about tracking
approvals.
Stated another way... history has shown with the feature process that
people don't always do the right thing. Not in a malicious way, but
usually because they didn't understand what they were supposed to or
simply took a guess and moved on.
For the feature process I use the very manual, rudimentary process of
Category classifications and page watches.
What process are you proposing so that I know:
1) When a spin is officially being proposed as a feature?
2) All of the required previous required steps or approvals were
completed correctly?
