[Bf-funboard] Policy

[Thunderbolt]

That's a very good idea. Kinda a unofficial 'issue
tracking' that we can use to improve the interface, by
throwing around ideas to solve them in the mailing
list, irc, etc.

I think that the focus of the Functionality Board
should be to come up with the best designs/ideas
possible, then hopefully coders will be 'infected' and
write the code :-).
