OK.

I'll give you Release Engineering's "status reports" for September,
October, and November:

September: taking a well-deserved break
October: taking a well-deserved break
November: taking a well-deserved break

How about other projects that rely on things like upstream's release
cycle?  What about projects that just maintain ebuilds?

Here's the games team's "status reports" for every month:

"Fixed more bugs, added more packages, cleaned up some ebuilds."

Now, perhaps what everyone would like, instead, would be status reports
*where necessary* from certain projects?

In fact, the council has been discussing asking a few projects about the
status on some of their tasks.  The main reason for this is for
communications purposes.  Basically, we'd just get a "Hey, where are you
at on $x?" response from the teams.

I don't *want* to drown projects in bureaucracy and paperwork.  I want
them to *accomplish* things, instead.
