just to repeat a question asked on mozillazine here where there's some
chance of an answer - what are these requirements? I guess it was decided
not to push the schedule back after all?

and if anyone would care to explain this (although I guess it may not be
funny to anyone else...)

I wasn't there, but I believe it means that mscott wasn't allowed an
extra day off for his birthday, but management joked that it would give
him a large raise to compensate.
