All,
So it seems to be almost every other day now when somebody mentions how broken the appdb rating system is. This "broken-ness" has had several high level discussions on Wine-Devel. There have also been many, many proposed solutions to this problem.
I do not wish to discuss these problems or these solutions in this thread. It is time something was done about this. By done I mean agreed upon (probably the harder part) then implemented in code and published to the winehq server(s).
I'de like to arrange an IRC discussion for all those interested in finalizing an attack plan, and then assigning the responsibility of doing it to somebody who is capable and has the time (perhaps myself).
Lets (arbitrarily) set a time for the chat at:
When: 11PM UTC (6PM EST) 2/6/09 (Friday) Where: #winehackers
If this arbitrary time seems to be poorly chosen for a large number of people then please propose an alternative well in advance so all are aware of it.
