That's a grim assessment. In any case, it doesn't matter how someone |
| 10 |
spends their votes. If many people spend votes for bootsplash, and |
| 11 |
bootsplash enhancements end up being a priority, then I would hope we |
| 12 |
would respond by incorporating them with the same priority as our own |
| 13 |
personal wishlists. |

In any case, a bug has been created. |
