We already have this, but internal :-)
The beta page (beta.woodstone.nu) shows what is done, but
internaly we also see what is "requested" and "working on".
We don't want to have that too publicly, our competitors
are reading it too :-)

Subject: [SA-list] Wishlist: a wishlist!
Whilst I'm in a suggesting mood, and at the risk of sounding like I'm telling Dirk how to manage his development...
Something I've seen elsewhere which worked really well was a page on a product's with an "official" wishlist. Every time someone mailed the developer with a suggestion or request, he would add it to this wishlist together with a status comment, and the list was then grouped by several categories such as "Already in place", "Under development", "Might work on it at some point", "Rejected because...". Obviously this is a little extra bit of information for the developer to maintain, but the advantages of this are several:
- Developer has a clear list to refer to
- Customers don't repeatedly ask for the same thing as others have already asked for
- Customer don't have to keep asking what's happening about something
- Prospective customers can see that development is ongoing
Here's one example of this type of thing:
http://www.theill.com/conquercam/wishlist.asp
(although that example doesn't have "rejected" which is actually a really useful category)
As ever, just a thought!
Ian
