This makes a lot of sense with respect to the discussion we had at the graphics working group meeting this morning around component releases; more to the point, exactly how each component gets tested, packaged (and/or tar'd) and pushed out to some publicly visible repository. The idea of letting someone post their own "howto" on the wiki, and then, based upon votes, pushing it to the "official" engineering resources howto section has merit for me. Of course, how the plugin handles votes across revisions would make a difference here, but the idea, in and of itself, seems cool for certain applications of the wiki.
cheers, Jesse

Folks
I recently came up with a list of ideas proposed for the problem of the development cycle. I put those in the wiki, however it soon dawned on me that others would need to actually edit the wiki in order to give feedback. Each user could add some comment or +1 or something like that. Altogether deciphering the results could mean some work going through the user comments.
So I want to have a quick and easy way for ratings on the ideas. Moinmoin supports star ratings, like described here: http://moinmo.in/RatingSystemForMoin. Basically it allows readers to rate options given in the wiki page, without having to edit the page, just click on the stars.
I made an IT request to have this plugin installed but was asked to start a discussion in the list, as the usefulness of this plugin is doubted.
Am I the only one needing some quick way for readers to rate ideas put on the wiki? If you also have the same need, +1 it by responding to this thread :-) Hopefully we can have this support added.
Thank you
