It's really hard to add features to someone else's app in such a disconnected way, for everyone in their community. Most people haven't heard of your site, and it's also hard to form habits of checking Github, as well as your page. Usability improvements ... should makes things easier! Repo owners have control over what gets displayed on their project page (to an extent), and can drive their subset of users to your app. If owners are having trouble seeing how many people up voted a feature, then make a bot that counts the number of thumbs up in an issue tagged "feature", then update the issue title. This would be really helpful to those people. Also, if owners want to see the top feature requests, make an embeddable image for the README that clicks to the full list. People love embeddable widgets. :D Those two things is all I observe your app does, plus you had to reinvent commenting, which is a huge turn off. There are loads of popular tools out there that integrate into Github, it's worth checking them out to see how they weasel their features into Github.com!
