I proposed that it should offer more than the Gentoo Forums and more than=20
Bugzie too. It should of course offer a good search as the Forums do, but=
=20
what it must do is list dynamically the features/issues requested more and=
=20
voted for by most people. In other words, offer a real time view of what=20
people are more interested in, want fixing, etc. If we want Gentoo to be=20
driven by its users needs (and desires) then this would be a representative=
=20
system, which should hopefully spur devs to work in the right direction. O=
f=20
course, if I get all my mates to vote for stupid things then potentially=20
stupid things will get developed. There will be some checks and balances=20
needed here to avoid such vote poisoning of the system - although it will=20
probably be self regulating.
