I experienced it so that some people just don't find the time. Talking to one or two personally resulted in "Hey, I didn't look at it up to now. But the class is really great." And simply assuming "nobody responded so they don't like it" is the wrong way in my eyes. Proposal to this: Saying "0" or "-1" and and a reason why you say that would be a better way off. This way people proposing would know where they are at. And refering to Bertrand: Yes, this could fairly good be integrated in the extension of the pear webinterface that has been discussed a short while ago on the list. Maybe there could be a board to which you can submit package-proposals and then have a form in which people can rate -1, 0 or +1 (only one vote per person at a time; vote can be changed later). And as soon as you e.g. resolved the issues combined with a -1 you could send a short message to the author of this -1 to inform him to re-think his vote and maybe change it to 0 or +1. Would be *quite* helpful - don't you think? Just my 2 euros :-)) Stefan
