OK, I lied about being finished with the conversation...but that's 
Bjorn's fault (as is everything else ;).

Yes, of course...and that's why (for my project at least) we have 
been/are conforming to the must-do (and many most of the should do) items. 

But I would question the assumption that what the Galileo user community 
wants is the *additional/new* must do rules being proposed.  Perhaps 
some in the community, but I don't see any requests at the ECF level 
(i.e. in newsgroups, mailing lists, etc) for ECF's plan.xml (even though 
there), while I see a good deal of requests of the nature:  "I didn't 
know there was a project like this at EF?...do you all have X?"  (and 
when answer is 'yes'...)..."what do I have to do to get it?"

Good.  I think they should keep debating about the must-dos (and perhaps 
make the debate larger/involving more people).
