I don’t know if I’m the only one thinking like this but I feel that haiku-development has a more immediate vibe (fixing stuff for the next alpha or something that can be reached in a reasonable timeframe with existing resources), so I’m very careful about stuff i’m writing here. Also glass elevator would serve as a place for all the haiku ‘dissidents' to have a conversation and pool ideas without causing too much irritation for main devs. Even if nothing concrete comes out of the list, at least ideas can brew and grow and people who don’t feel too comfortable to post on haiku-dev thread can participate. In my team we have a box of dreams where we write stuff we’d like to have in the future. Our programmer hardly takes a look at that stuff. This has worked out well for us as the assumption is that there is no pressure for the coders to react to anything on that particular list. I personally wouldn’t mind if haiku devs completely ignored any conversation on glass elevator and any references to it. communicating this to participants of glass elevator would probably prevent many kinds of headache. just an idea yeh!
