For the most part, I agree. I think we've really strayed from the
timetable, and I agree with Paul's observation that we're seeing a lot
of new stuff and not a lot of bug fixing. I think there comes a time
when we have to stop and evaluate whether the features that are
getting added are really necessary to make Koha 3.0 a good solid
package, and whether they're getting added because we've got customers
asking for them.

We all know this is a difficult issue--we've been through all this
before with previous releases.

Of course I disagree with anything referring to myself ;-)

I agree.

So let's have a meeting and see if we can arrive at a game plan!
