I think spec reviews, blueprint reviews, and code review topics could all get a runway slot.

What if we had these queues:
Backlog Queue, Blueprint Runway, Approved Queue, Code Runway

Currently all approved blueprints would sit in the Approved queue.
As described, you leave the runway and go back in the queue if progress stalls.

That might be a bit more complex than what I was thinking for our first go at trying this process. Is "Backlog Queue" the list of unapproved blueprints (specs) waiting for dedicated runway review and "Blueprint Runway" are the specs guaranteed to receive review during the two week time-box?

I hadn't been thinking about putting spec reviews into runways as well. I had been focusing on only the review of implementations of approved specs.

Basically abandon the spec freeze. Control with runways instead.

I'm open to this idea, just had a concern as described in my last reply to this thread, on whether getting rid of spec freeze may remove early expectation setting for people (if they prefer that). I'm okay with going with the majority vote about it.
