Folks,

How about a rather detailed template with required, desired and
optional headings. Ask people to file the required ASAP, and then later
the level of detail they feel able to provide.  This way we should be
able to achieve the following:

1) Actually get a bunch of new use cases in the package.

2) Trap duplicates before people waste effort, e.g. "Thanks for the
required elements, but we have this already. If your details are
roughly the same, save yourself some effort or extend it as you see
fit."

3) We have a place holder and a contact that we can chase on a
proactive basis if we wish.

4) There was something else, but I can't remember now.
