I'm not happy that "other stuff" just gets punted. Things should
definitely not be removed from Open Items list when there is still
discussion/objection on them. The purpose of discussion on hackers is so
that we take note of those items, not just shrug and walk away from them
because some weeks have passed since they were mentioned. I shouldn't
have to keep a personal list of things I've objected to, so I can refute
what other people say.
