Unfortunately I do not believe the toolserver can help
us display musical notation, protect only a portion of
a page from editing, or allow specialized
transclution.  I do try to remind people about
outstanding issues but I am wondering how many other
people are becoming frustrated with this.  It seems a
great deal of very minor issues are handled for en.WP
very quickly. They have recently gotten help to
rearrange the side bar display of all things.  Yet
everyone says the developers are overworked.  So I
would think somehow this system of prioritizing what
gets done (bugzilla) must be broken.  

Now this is my personal opinion.   I care ten times
more that the development needs of my community are
more fairly  addressed, than that the community's
voices in the Board Elections are not drowned out by
en.WP.
