    Precedence: bulk

    How do the user input meetings impact the "donation" deadline set
    by Mac? I know that user input may not necessarily cause donations,
    but if common, high priority themes emerge, are we going to disallow
    any donations that address those themes? It seems to me that the
    donation deadline should fall later than requirements gathering, which
    is what the user meetings really are.

    Gord.
