| >Voting allows users to be given a pot of votes which they can allocate |
| to bugs, to indicate that they'd like them fixed. |
| This allows developers to gauge |
| user need for a particular enhancement or bugfix. By allowing bugs with |
| a certain number of votes to automatically move from "UNCONFIRMED" to |
| "NEW", users of the bug system can help high-priority bugs garner |
| attention so they don't sit for a long time awaiting triage.</P |

| It should probably be some number lower than the |

| "Maximum votes per person" is non-zero; that doesn't make |
| any sense.</P |
