I thought Mozilla does it 1-per-bug, but I guess I'm mistaken. KDE works |
11 |
well with 20-per-bug. |

I'm cool with it either way. Any reasonable value will probably work. I |
14 |
gave that example to show how I would set it up-- starting at one vote per |
15 |
bug and changing it later if users request it. I prefer incremental |
16 |
approaches (starting small and working up as the needs dictate). |

sj7trunks is responsible for maintaining bugzilla... so I believe he'd |
19 |
also be setting that value, if voting gets implemented; and I hope it |
20 |
does. Voting is a low cost, low impact tweak to give the users a way to |
21 |
help steer the things we're working on. |
