Ken,
I've read it all and I really like the new-features list.
But two things bother me.
1) You mention that the wishlist has been used. But there's no simple way for me/us to check which items have been 'honoured' and which have been 'rejected'. Personally, I contributed several items, but I see none of them back in the list you mention. That makes me wonder: were they not read or were they rejected.
Can your team provide any feedback on the item-level to us or to Michel Fournier?
2) The wishlist items can be rated by us. This gives a 'highest ratings' list. I have noticed that frequently items get the rate 'Disagree - I see no need for this'. Of course, this rating negatively influences the total score of an item, causing it to end lower in the 'highest ratings' list. I suspect that it's only one person who's frequently giving this score to any item that he/she doesn't fully understand/appreciate.
Does your team pay attention to the ratings, or do they form an autonomous opinion about the items?
Groet,
Peter de Valença
Constructive frustration is the breeding ground of genius.
If there’s no willingness to moderate for the sake of good debate, then I have no willingness to debate at all.
Let's develop superb standards that will end the holy wars.
