	== Questions, Comments, FYI ==		== Questions, Comments, FYI ==

			* myk: How does one proactively propose disabling a feature that merged to Aurora due to quality/completeness issues?
			** current process for disabling/backing out features is mostly reactive
			** drivers monitor incoming feedback and bug reports and make decisions in response to them
			** here's a proactive process:
			*** file a bug requesting feature disablement/backout
			*** explain the reasons for the request in the bug description
			*** attach a patch that disables/backs out the feature
			*** nominate the patch for Aurora via the approval-mozilla-aurora flag
