From the article:

"The plan is to give them the features only if they promise to build the product we want. No ‘we'll look into it' or ‘we'll see what we can do'. I'm only turning over the list if they promise to give us our features in a fairly reasonable timeframe."

Do you really think that is productive? How can a vendor promise features if they don't even know what they are before you are requiring them to commit? Don't get me wrong...I love this idea of compiling a list of feature requests as a community but I think it should be done in an open way so we can build off each other's ideas.
