A few weeks ago you said you were going to leave this list. Last week you said you were going for two weeks.
Can you please stop being the local drama queen, and just do some coding? 

We are still waiting for your implementations, open source and running on a service, and testable.

We can change what is a MUST as things progress, add new formats, remove others, until at some point it does not become that important anymore.
