Since Adam reads these forums, it would be good to know why they don't take the items that were not completed during the previous development cycle as the starting point for the current wishlist.
It seems like many good ideas were suggested and not implemented in the previous release cycle and it makes one less inclined to provide input if you see that some of these ideas were never implemented or their status is shown as 0% or 60%. Maybe this is a case of going back to the wiki so that it reflects what was really done and what is missing and moving what wasn't done to the 2009 wish list.
What do you think? And if you are in favor, could you see to it that it happens?
Thanks for the chance to comment.
