This presentation is great. It co-incidentally relates to an important
discussion the Launchpad team leads had in January. We had an action
item to explore two competing ideas: controlling the mix of branches, or
configuration. Neither spike has seen the light of day.

Launchpad has always used configuration for feature development and
controlling who sees what. We have never documented a best practice for
this. Every developer discovers or reinvents configuration checks when
they discover they need it. What they know is largely based on who was
with them during the pre-implementation meeting and reviews.
