The ubuntu community's systematic approach to prevent unintended consequences is well conceived and implemented. But no one plan is flawless and every good plan should have a contingency. This thread documents a years worth of history showing a very important component getting hung up in a well-intentioned process; causing server security issues to persist, significant advances to not be implemented and a loss of marketshare to competitors. Please be open to discussing a contingency among the ubuntu core team.
