jQuery 1.7 Roadmap

Voting on Bugs:

• The
  point of voting on the blockers is that they're, previously nominated
  by just one person as being a blocker – we use this opportunity to
  determine if it should remain a blocker (and be fixed) or if not, get
  bumped down to a lower priority.

Voting on Features:

• In the case of feature/enhancement requests – either land it or close the bug as wontfix

Form is now closed

Team members should have permission to vote, please let John know if you don’t have access, for some reason.
