Would the talk thread replicate the comments thread in Brainstorm? Actually, why don't I wander over there and find out what's proposed...

Is there any way of merging Brainstorm ideas? When I posted my idea (see sig) I hadn't realised the Sandbox existed, and that there was an existing idea that mine was a logical extension of.

Site search is missing a filter for the Brainstorm page... I think I should submit that as a site bug.

IMO this isn't a bug, but a misfeature, of course you should fill a enhancement ticket at bugs.maemo.

I'm coming to this debate rather late, but it seems kind of clear to me:

- Brainstorm is for ideas and enhancements
- Bugzilla for bugs

As it is anticipated that there will be a flood of new users, you want something that is "as simple as possible but not simpler".

There is nothing stopping experienced users from entering those super-specific enhancement requests direct into Bugzilla.
For things that are incorrectly placed in Brainstorm, the moderators could open the bug and add the appropriate user-details.
Over time, the new people get used to Bugzilla and the difference between the two, *without* overloading Developers.
Yes, this puts extra work on people to move those ultra specific enhancement requests from Brainstorm to Bugzilla (or to the appropriate upstream project), but I see this as a better method because the user education happens only "as needed", rather than attempting to boil the ocean and educate people about subtle differences and getting more mainstream humans to fill in bugzilla.

What we really need at this point is to implement the basic bugfixes and enhancements to make the Brainstorm usable. There are 3 tasks committed by Netblade in this October sprint. Looking forward to the improvements!

On top of those we had some chat with Reggie in the Summit about connecting Talk and Brainstorm more tightly. We should try to publish a plan soon...

Looking forward for your plan. IMO a good Brainstorm integration inside talk, can be a big advantage for the discussion around the ideas proposed, this can fix my major complain about the Brainstorm platform .
