In order to help the devs cut down of the influx of millions of great deas (some of which are bound to be repeats), and in reference to the 'Hold It!' thread, perhaps the following suggestion could be helpful:

The devs could post a sticky at the top of this forum that outlines the major milestones and ideas that will be implemented in the next, say 6 months, 12 months, and beyond. That way everyone can see which direction VO is evolving, which ideas to wait with, and what to look forward for how long to.

My apologies if such a thing already exists - I wasn't able to access the design wiki, which I expect holds much of that information.

They're working on the TRAC system, which will give us a window into what they're up. It sounds as if it will be pretty specific.

This is a link about TRAC in general: http://trac.edgewall.org/

light at the end of the train TRACs, lol.
