How about add a priority for features from 1-4 so that features that are really useful or needed are given a 4 while ones that may not be that useful or needed at the time a 1.
Then the features would be ordered based on this priority so that the right ones get read and dealt with first.

Sorry, my net was being attacked so I didn't think it made it the first time.

There is a basic priotiy in place. Critical should be dealt with first, followed by normal, and lastly trivial. Some users may view their requests of more importance than others, but when it comes down to it, functionality should always be given priority.

Well I mean if you switch to the feature request tab, there are no priority options. But yes I see what you mean.

Feature requests have NO priority...it's a want/desire, and critical bugs and things that cause problems usually get done before ANY requests.

This is a "Bug Tracker" after all, not a "Wish List". It has its priority system, which is pretty standard in other systems. For this reason, I find this request to be ridiculous.

Most other large bug tracking systems have a priority field, however, the number of requests is currently small, and the projects managed are small, non-commercial, and not done to any kind of schedule. I'd much rather have a version target system (EOSERV 0.6.0 released when and only when quests are implemented, and the server is otherwise stable, i.e., no outstanding CRITICAL bugs), which is how I've worked so far when deciding a release was ready.
Bug #37 covers a method for the community to vote up feature requests and bugs that are affecting them most. I don't think the requester, or even me, is the best judge of which features have a higher priority than other requests.
A single number can't really capture the difference between things like the addition of a very important, simple, admin command; and something like the wedding system, and I expect that between tagging large requests to future versions, and voting up of smaller requests, would make a bug priority system completely redundant.
