Hi. Thanks for the comment.

Just to be clear, we didn't completely ignore that comment, or any 
other; we've been going through the comments on phone meetings every 
week. We did, however, fail to respond to that one, which I'm sorry for. 
I'll make sure to bring these up next we talk. Going back through, out 
of 26 comments, I see 3 that didn't get replies, so I'll be sure to get 
those, too. Thanks.

So i can be sure I understand, when you say "nowhere near ready for 
release", are you referring just to those 3 issues? I believe the 
question of speed there has mainly to do with labs, rather than Flagged 
Revs itself, and the other 2 points you mention are suggested UI 
improvements. From your phrasing, I take it you believe those UI changes 
are important enough to delay release?

Thanks,

William
