Surely I exagerated way too much but this issue really made me angry. Votes would have no meaning without the bugs themselves of course.

FYI I am GMT +1. We finally are about to discuss bug assessment/evaluation/rating, which will hopefully give this site a meaning. A sophisticated modern place where development discussion boils down in an organized manner and decisions on the future are made is simply non-existing in whole Wikimedia and bug voting was the closest to this. Of course, this site should expand significantly to be able to host such a process or much better a specialized site should be launched in the look of some ideas bank (Dells ideastorm etc.). The general public should be able to supply priorities weighting at leaset 50% of the development made, the other 50% may be supplied by developer community as software performance is an important issue too of course. (In reply to comment #12) > This has nothing to do with the progress of Wikimedia. If you think taking > voting out of the default Bugzilla installation was a bad idea, go complain to > the Mozilla Foundation. You are wrong. There was an important feature removed from this site and I do not mind what the reason was. This is what matters, someone removed a feature from here. This has nothing to do with Mozilla Foundation but it has with this site's admins. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
