(as in the bugzilla keyword). I don't think this would do any good. Users tend to mark bugs as enhancement on a whim, from what I've seen. I'd say we should enable voting for all bugs, and users should be informed that all enhancements are considered separately from problems (your "real" bugs), and it should be possible to show the highest voted problems as such.=20 I'm also strongly in favour of a limited number of votes per user. Along the lines of 2 votes/week for non-developers, and 4 votes/week for developers. Unused votes should NOT get carried over between weeks, to prevent vote hoarding. --=20 Robin Hugh Johnson E-Mail : robbat2@orbis-terrarum.net Home Page : http://www.orbis-terrarum.net/?l=3Dpeople.robbat2 ICQ# : 30269588 or 41961639 GnuPG FP : 11AC BA4F 4778 E3F6 E4ED F38E B27B 944E 3488 4E85 --Kj7319i9nmIyA2yE Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Robbat2 @ Orbis-Terrarum Networks iD8DBQFBBxlVsnuUTjSIToURAqoiAJ9AOTEFuFo6HM+3KOrLte7GPiBLiQCfWh/3 1uMTZk71k9A9zKnBoTIPlLM= =9E68 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Kj7319i9nmIyA2yE--
