I proposed that it should offer more than the Gentoo Forums and more than Bugzie too. It should of course offer a good search as the Forums do, but what it must do is list dynamically the features/issues requested more and voted for by most people. In other words, offer a real time view of what people are more interested in, want fixing, etc. If we want Gentoo to be driven by its users needs (and desires) then this would be a representative system, which should hopefully spur devs to work in the right direction. Of course, if I get all my mates to vote for stupid things then potentially stupid things will get developed. There will be some checks and balances needed here to avoid such vote poisoning of the system - although it will probably be self regulating. -- Regards, Mick
