Bibliographic Project List members,

One of the ways the OpenOffice developers access the importance of fixed and 
enhancements to OpenOffice is through project members voting on the issue 
voting system. I raised this issue some time ago but it is worth raising 
again.

I have just checked the current list of votes on issues, this query list all 
issues with more than 20 votes. You see this list using this very long URL-

http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/buglist.cgi?resort=1&issue_status=NEW;issue_status=STARTED;issue_status=REOPENED;email1=;emailtype1=exact;emailassigned_to1=1;email2=;emailtype2=exact;emailreporter2=1;issueidtype=include;issue_id=;changedin=;votes=20;chfieldfrom=;chfieldto=Now;chfieldvalue=;short_desc=;short_desc_type=substring;long_desc=;long_desc_type=substring;issue_file_loc=;issue_file_loc_type=substring;status_whiteboard=;status_whiteboard_type=substring;keywords=;keywords_type=anytokens;field0-0-0=noop;type0-0-0=noop;value0-0-0=;newqueryname=;Submit%20query=Submit%20query&order=issues.votes%20desc%2C%20issues.priority%2C%20issues.issue_type

The issue with the highest vote is 'allow import of SVG (Scalable Vector 
Graphics)' with 317 votes. The bibliographic enhancement issue 'Proposals for 
Bibliographic facility enhancements.'  has only 21 votes!

Each user has five votes to allocate. I urge every one on these lists to 
allocate one or all of their votes to the issue 4260 'Proposals for 
Bibliographic facility enhancements.'

To vote is easy, you just go to the OpenOffice site 
http://www.openoffice.org
Click on the 'My Pages' tab and login in with your username and password. 

and then got to the voting page for that issue -

http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/showvotes.cgi?voteon=4260

and enter the number of votes  1-5 you would like to allocate to  'Proposals 
for Bibliographic facility enhancements.' in the text box next to that issue. 
Click on the 'Submit" button at the bottom of that page.

If everyone on the mailing lists does this we should boost our vote the top of 
the issue list.


regards

David
