Hello,
A word from the acting wiki gardener. . .
It was brought to my attention that leaving approved or discarded features in section 2 was becoming unwieldy (http://wiki.oasis-open.org/xliff/XLIFF2.0/FeatureTracking ). So I came up with an impromptu numbering scheme that requires hand-numbering. Basically we will need to add the owner's first initial plus the next available number any new proposed features (for example, see fake item 2.23 below). As items are promoted or demoted, they retain their lifetime ID number. The auto-generated numbers in the numbered list will become meaningless (other than to show us a quick count of items in that category).
The nice thing is that we will have the psychological effect of seeing section 1 (and in some cases section 3) get bigger - and section 2 get smaller: progress at a glance.
