Looks good.  So are we gonna do the whole bounty thing, or was that idea shot down?

Well, judging for the "+0 Bounty" and -0 Bounty" things, I guess we are.

Bounty is partially supported, as in it's displayed and understood by the system, but there's no way to add or remove bounty except by divine intervention (i.e. admin's access to the database). I don't know if I will add bounty, because I'd have to add another table to join (to be organized), and unless I have some other need than for bounty, I may or may not do it.

Is the 'status' thing really necessary really needed? I mean, things are on the list until they're completed, and then they're removed from the list.

OR they can stay on the list once they're completed!

But why? No one (should) re-request them because they're in the game. Plus, then they just take up space on the list- each build, the items completed at the top of the list would stay there. Distracting.

Maybe moved to a "completed" section?

The statuses are "closed," "open," "in progress," and "implemented." By default, the filters on the index page *only* show open items so the things you do not want to see do not take up space. You have to explicitly ask to show implemented items to see them.

Are the status, types, category, etc. defined by a table or hard coded?  Doesn't really matter either way - just curious.

Features are stored in another table.

Votes are stored in another table (with one vote = one row).

Categories are stored in another table.

Dependencies are in another table (with one dependency link = one row).

Status and type are technically neither. I didn't want the weight of a whole table, but I didn't want the lack of normality completely... so they are PHP arrays in a global file. :D

An admin interface would allow more people than just jitspoe to handle it :P

But why is that necessary?

I like the idea of accountability in the hands of Jitspoe ... especially something as self-regulating as a feature vote thread.
