I am sympathetic to the issues you and Andrew are describing (I understand Bruce's stream analogy, but I think Andrew is right that from the user's point of view, it's not usable). But I am not convinced that users voting on desired features will get us the users' desired features. The features we get are mostly the features that have attracted developers. The method by which that attraction happens is interesting, but I don't think it's democratic. A -- Andrew Sullivan | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Information security isn't a technological problem.
