Both things were developed at the same time and implementing the minor changes required in chan_motif for call-id logging didn't quite make it. Personally I made the call to put it into 11 because it's on the line between a new feature and something that should have been there. It's also very non-invasive, limited to a single new module. If this discussion leads to keeping this out, so be it.

It's not my call to keep it in or out, I'm just bringing up the fact we 
explicitly say feature freeze is the 3rd Wednesday in July. If we, as a 
project, cannot make that date we should send out notifications of the 
slip.  This way other people have the opportunity to get their (late) 
patches in.

Personally, I would rather slip the date, get all the new features in, 
then branch and release. I just don't like branching and releasing, then 
trying to add more features afterwards.  From a testing perspective, 
this is just wrong.
