This makes me think there's a market for a better bug tracker - maybe one where people submitting bugs have karma, and you can sort bugs by that.

- bo1024 14y agoIt's a tough problem. You really want to be able to take advantage of the tail of contributors -- the people who use one particular product, use it a lot, but have never filed bug reports for other products. I do think a stackoverflow-type solution would be worth a shot -- if you post a good bug report, it will be hopefully easy for people to understand or replicate and will get voted up, without requiring previous posts on your part. That's if you have a "crowd" actually willing to look at these things (might work for Chrome, not sure about small projects).
- hayksaakian 14y agoMaybe the starring system can be this?
- RachelF 14y agoYou often feel that bug reporting just goes to dev/null
- tasuki 14y agoI like how Ubuntu handles this - each bug has a "Bug heat" number, which is determined by how many people say the bug affects them and by other criteria.
