From: smalyshev@sugarcrm.com (Stas Malyshev) Hi! > However, is there a predictable process for picking some requests over others? Yes. Creating and RFC and discussing it on the list raises chance of resolution (one way or another) of the request. For smaller feature that does not warrant RFC, pull request on github and note on internals would help too. In general, if the person is willing to invest some time in getting the feature considered and implemented - including explaining why it is a good idea, etc. on the list - the chances for it are greater than if he limits his commitment to putting it into the bug DB and letting whoever needs it to pick it up. With the latter scenario it still can happen, but the former gives it a better chance. > But I would have expected the bugs with hundreds of votes and/or > comments to be inspected first...
