Stano, i'm not sure what you mean with "how", but i guess you mean "what
will be the outcome" of implementation...

+1 vote!

IMHO we should (at least try to) specify exactly (in some appropriate
level of detail) when we can consider the feature done. And this should
be done in the feature (openFate) itself and it should be done _before_
the implementation starts.

It might not be easy for some cases, but it's important. Except knowing
when to close the feature as done it will help us to better estimate the
efforts, and QA and users testing the feature will know what to test/expect.

I pretty much hope this will become a standard part of the process :O)
