Hi It sounds great, but (there are always buts...).
First, we already have a way for users to vote on ideas. It's on the wiki: <https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Vote_for_Enhancement> There are two problems with it: 1. Most users don't really know such page exists. 2. Ideas are put on page, voted for and then... nothing. No one takes care of them (maybe it means that developers are unaware of such page?). Are these problems unsolvable in wiki? Do we need to setup another site to overcome these obstacles? Will these problems cease to exist on another platform? Second. I have some KDE SC background. On their forums, they have great "Brainstorm" section. Users may put their ideas, vote for them and discuss. The problems is, there are great ideas with hundreds of votes that just rot there for years. There is huge demand for them by users, but no one is interested in implementing them. Yes, I know how open source software works. You can't really force anybody to code anything. But what is a use of ideas page if they are never implemented by developers? BTW: could developers agree that one feature from top ten on such page will be implemented for each major release? Or maybe should we go into crowdfunding? While I fully support the idea to involve users and make them more part of community, I wanted to point out some issues that must be solved before. Technical work (putting project page together) is really the easiest in all process. -- Best regards Mirosław Zalewski _______________________________________________ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
