Thanks everyone, but I think the feature owners had the harder job!

As I've said for the past releases... let's keep making this process 
better!

If you don't like something about it, complaining in the midst of the 
process doesn't get us anywhere... providing constructive suggestions 
for making it better before we start the process for F10 will--sort of 
like the difference between complaining that you don't like something 
about a program, but not providing any debug information or a patch :)

Thanks,
John
