It's different because in one case, the votes are completely ignored. William said that counting bug reports / feature requests was useful. You're saying that the concept of voting is a useful when you need to make a decision. I wouldn't disagree with either of those. But we're talking about enabling voting on tickets in a bug tracker for an open source (volunteer) project. Is there a single example where *that* has been useful? It's easy to make up hypothetical ones, but I've never seen a real one. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
