Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: Idea about Ideas

So, if an idea is new and has not received any votes yet it will be far far down 
the list.  Hence only fairly old and well marketed ideas reach anywhere near the 
top.  


Some obsolete ideas 'may' have been removed by a person working through 'some' 
of the list.  This still leaves many old ideas much further up the list than 
newly suggested ideas.

That is quite simple. If the ideas are outdated they should simply be
dismissed by the devs as Outdated :)

The voting process is the most democratic (anyone can suggest an idea) and
the most meritocratic (the best ideas climb to the top independently of who
suggested them)

Of course this "forces" the devs to take a look at the list, say once a
month, discuss the top 10 items and classify them as Planned, Outdated,
Portponed, Rejected, etc (this is a mix of options available in Dropbox and
Sourceforge)

As soon as an idea is classified as Completed it is archived and the next
most voted idea will rise to the top 10 "automagically" ;)
