Maybe this is a silly question (or series of them), but...

Weren't the launchpad lists released to the general public with the 
1.2.3 release?

If so, why aren't you sure that the issues are resolved?  If not, then 
why did it get released with known (presumably major, if you're not 
activating new ones) issues?

What are the issues?

Were warnings given out, warning that the real release still had 
(presumably major) known issues, and should not be used for large-person 
teams, which have a larger potential for screw ups?

If so, where were they?  I don't see this on blog.launchpad.net, or the 
release notes.

This is making me hope that launchpad won't screw up with what it says 
is for production (ie, not beta), and that people won't come and lynch 
me for utilizing this new feature, for a big team.

And the final question:  If this feature is marked for production, but 
is not actually safe to use, can we get a list of any other features 
that fit into this category, so that we can make our own judgments on 
whether they should be used?

Apologies if i'm totally off base here - this is just what i'm getting 
from reading this ML.

Thanks,

Hobbsee
