Whiteboard
[asac, Oct 10, 2011]: wonder if this is really a protoype blueprint or rather a "make seeded builds happen for all official builds"; if that was the case, ensure that the plan is documented in the blueprint summary or in a blog/mail/wiki-page linked from a prominent comment here. If this is really just a protoype ensure that creating the conclusion and real plan BP also gets a work item. anyway .. approved for series.

This is really "prototype" style blueprint created to capture research work.
[dzin Oct 28, 2011] Mark as implemented, break out the unfinished items to a blueprint targeting 11.11
