It'd be awesome if there were a tag cloud (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tag_cloud) of what pbwiki was working on at any given time... engineers could end their day (or when they switch tasks) by putting in a few keywords for the feature/bug that they worked on.. then the users community could get the pulse of what is getting time devoted against it at any time... this would be especially useful because it seems like there are so many number 1 top priority things, there's no way that they could all be getting meaningful work done against them at once... (educator logins, office integration, mobile devices, better search, performance and scalability, migration and automation, etc)

I think that increased visibilty may lead to better dialog, happier uses (although I'll bet that 94% of all pbwiki users are happy, but its the unhappy ones that are drawn to the help forums, so they appear here in higher concentrations) and even a nice dose of the accountability that comes from self-reflection.

just a thought.

Ok, so when is Guy Fawkes going to be let off probation?? He just happens to be one of the people I can count on to help me figure things out. I realize he occasionally is critical of pb wiki staff - but maybe you should hire him rather than ban him. My initial feelings about Satisfaction was definitely colored by the fact that he was on line, listening and had a LOT of technical skills.
I'm rather a newbie to the wiki world, don't know why pbwiki is offering everything for free, don't really understand satisfactions relationship with pbwiki, and certainly shouldn't be criticizing a group of people offering the whole thing for free - but to tell you the truth - after I finally started to get the swing of it - I began to wonder. Specifically why:
1) pbwiki does not have a front page which lists the features available
2) do not explain limitations of the website
3) would even setup a wiki in the first place that does not allow you to
a) get rid of the side bar OR add it.
b) does not have a calendar that fills the screen, can change to monthly, weekly, daily view AND have a print feature ???
c) does not have an interactive spread sheet available ??
I mean it seems like these are the basics?? are they not?? and at the very least BEFORE you get people to sign up and spend hours and hours setting up their web pages - that you should note the features and limits it has rather than AFTER the fact. - such as no we don't have that but we're considering it.
As I said, I shouldn't bite the hand that feeds me, but I understand where Fawkes was coming from.
And it's possible I have no idea what I'm talking about. That I don't truly have a perspective on the scope of the problem and that to level ANY criticism at pbwiki is rude, crude and uncalled for. I'm sorry, I don't know where that came from. I am trying to quit smoking. Do you think you could at least have EXAMPLES of web pages to show what is possible?? with a clear explanation of what is not possible. And maybe a "why you should choose our wiki over all the other wiki's"
Thanks for listening,
