While I'm here, I need ten volunteers for testing.
This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I'll carry picket signs in favor of the ability to label bookmarks if necessary.

labeling bookmarks would be my first choice.
I will happily test whatever needs testing.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Can a stompy please reset my password to the midwest mailing list?
Note to self: having a PDA be the only place I save passwords is a bad idea, especially if I let the PDA's battery run down. Also, sync the PDA more than once every few months....

The only one who can do it is Tom Scola... Maybe...

Woe to the fucking wicked.
If you're looking for testers now, I'll volunteer.

I've updated the requests list (again), taking into account the priorities and ideas that have been put forward. Nothing's gone, it's just in a new order. The two requests ita and Dana agreed were unneeded has gone all the way to the very bottom; new requests are at the top.
New input welcome.

Questions on some of ita's questions:
- Searching user list by e-mail address - It would be kind of handy to have a user list that included e-mail addresses, but I'm not fully sure how I feel about it. Anyway, does this line item mean that I could know an e-mail address and use it to find a screen name? Or find real-world info? Or what?
- Quickedits for tiny text, line break [BR], and links (we have tiny (coming up) and links. Do we need the line break? - Personally, I don't think so, but that's just my 2 drachmas
- Full-screen, large font compose box for impaired vision. (maybe a impaired vision style sheet?) - how would a user choose to use a stylesheet if one was created? If you go that route, a stylesheet that makes the board screen-reader compliant might be cool too.
Um, I'll volunteer to test stuff although I won't be back online until the 26th.
