Yes, I botched the communication on this, my apologies about that.
Voting has now been disabled on Bugzilla. We are investigating ways to
make the CC count affect the bug janitor's automatic priority
categorization in its stead.

I noticed today that my votes on some bugs had been removed. Visiting
the bugs I see there's no longer any way to vote.
So I guess as a result of this discussion, voting was disabled on some products?
No problem with me, but would have been nice with some sort of
announcement (sorry if I missed it!)

Never looked at them. Never seen the benefit.

Hello folks!
I often find myself explaining to users that votes on Bugzilla tickets
are generally meaningless and not used by most developers to help
prioritize work. After I explain this, they generally express surprise,
as it's not obvious.
I find myself wondering whether it would make sense to disable the
voting feature by default to avoid giving our users this false impression.
So if you *do* take user votes into consideration when determining what
tickets to prioritize, I'd like to hear from you!
