| ROOST is focused on building high-quality, functional infrastructure tooling. That means that not every feature or refactor is going to be accepted right now (even if it’s a good idea long term). Please be gracious if your proposal is tabled or added to the future roadmap instead of merged. |

Fun fact: tabled means opposite things depending on where you are! In the UK it means to put forward for discussion (i.e. put on the table in front of the group), but in the US it means to put it on hold (i.e. put on the table in the corner instead of discussing it). I think in Canada it's even more confusing: in parliament they use the UK meaning, but in business they use the US meaning. 🙃
Best to avoid the idiom.
