Indeed. It feels pretty dishonest of us to keep a voting feature that isn't payed attention to. I also don't think it works as a way to stop people from adding '+1' comments. All bugs that I've seen that get enough votes that +1 comments would have been distracting, *also* get enough +1 comments that the bug effectively becomes useless. / Jonas _______________________________________________ dev-platform mailing list dev-platform@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-platform
