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

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

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