How about voting for bugs? That would be fair, and it would make sure that
the bugs that hurt more people get fixed faster.
Bugzilla has a voting system, in which you basically vote for the n issues
that you most want fixed, where n is a per-product configuration parameter.
But it doesn't seem to be enabled on our Bugzilla.
Walter - if Brad enables this feature, do you promise you'll take notice of
it in the process of deciding what to fix next?
My suspicion is that would turn out to be about as useful as that "D
wishlist" eigenpoll thingy somebody set up. As far as I can tell that
only reflects the opinions of the few people who have a lot of extra
time to bother with voting.
However, bugs are a more structured space than wishes. I'd suggest Brad
to enable the voting feature experimentally and with an understanding
there's no underlying promise. I'd personally be curious to gather some
insight into what bugs are the most annoying, and I'm sure Walter could
use such information to good effect.
