Well, of course I'm a trusted user. That goes without saying.
Implicitly.
Whoa. Good myth.

I'd avoid the idea that only some users can post things. That way lies madness. I think either all or none. or maybe a size limit or something. or a certain number per month. or something.

I tried to close the lightbulbs thread and got one o' those "where the $$&#&(@#& are the developers?" error messages. I was doing it through the css.b.net pages, if that makes a difference.

The css.net pages are a bit behind in some fixes, Jon. I need to get back on that.
Could you put it in bugtracker?

Only if there's a bugtracker under something other than b.org. B.org is blocked for me at work. The css domain is not.

Aha.
No.
I'll try to remember to port the fix (hell, and finish the fix) this weekend. Programming neurons are missing.

Jon--for the functionality to automate voting, what do we need?
Poll:
- creator (1)
- start date (0,1)
- end date (0,1)
- title (1)
- explication (1)
- questions (>=1)
Question:
- sequence # (1)
- text (1)
- options (>1)
Option:
- sequence (1)
- text (1)
Does that cover it? And the basic assumption being that the poll is open between start and end (or from now until end if no start is specified). People get one vote (have people needed to change their answers?) per question, and poll results are only visible to the poll owner (& admins?) before the end date and time, and visible to everyone after that.
Am I missing anything much?

That looks pretty exhaustive. Maybe to the poll table, add a link to the post at which the lightbulbs discussion starts?
Who is the "poll owner"? Were you thinking the person who made the proposal? If so, I don't think they should have access to the results before the end date. They don't have access to that information now. Maybe simply make it an admin thing and leave out the creator altogether?
I don't know if people have had to change their votes in the past, but I think it's a good idea to work that functionality into the code.
