Chip,

That's really what I intended that column for.  In 4.0, it was difficult to=
 do because by the time the page was started most features were checked in =
so for expedience, I just put in the company it came from. =20

I actually would like to completely get rid of that table and replace it wi=
th a link to a public filter on Jira.  (note the line on 4.1 release page t=
hat says " 4.1 Feature List from Jira.  Please someone add a filter add the=
 link here. ")  The filter should be on the release=3D[release number] and =
issue type =3D new features.  Then that would make it much more dynamic and=
 people will see the actual contributors and status as contributors update =
the issue and tasks list.  The problem is that I don't have permission to m=
ake a public filter on Jira.  Do you have that permission?

I intended the release pages to be a somewhat static landing page where peo=
ple can start from to find out more about a release and the current status =
of the release.  So, aside from updates on the status of the release from t=
he release manager, most of the information in there should be just links. =
 I kept the current table in 4.1 release page for now so people can verify =
the current list of specs have been moved to the design page.
