Make managers, developers and the maemo.org community aware of what you think is important to get in!

Re: maemo.org Bugzilla Feature Jar
 

It would be worth listing the new enhancement requests, as a clear way to gather feedback and votes. Let's assume that many people interested in these monthly fature jars are not following the much longer and complex weekly bug jars.

How many enhancement requests would be left if the thresold is 5? And 10?[/QUOTE]

Re: maemo.org Bugzilla Feature Jar
 

Hmm, it's one click, but okay. :)

>=10 votes: 14 enhancement requests total
>=5 votes: 33 enhancement requests total
