KCLS Requirement Status

Below is a list of requirements/features/enhancements that are KCLS published when they began their road down Evergreen. Some requirements are in active development. Some have been deferred. Still others are already part of Evergreen (this was a list of requirements, not a gap analysis). As time permits, the KCLS team will be updating each requirement with its status so the rest of the community knows what they've got actively on their plate.
