RE: Sorting out User Stories

Good point, Jessica!  We did use that distinction in our voting.

I’m just thinking wouldn’t the +0 and -0 distinction in the voting be lost if you just add them all up? Could you possibly count +0 and -0 as +0.2 and -0.2 respectively or some similar value which takes into consideration the distinction between the two?

Thanks,
Jessica.

I'd like to suggest the following lightweight framework for sorting out our 90 (!) user stories for the social API.

I propose we divide them into 3 groups:

  *   Undisputed. All positive or 0, no negatives.
  *   Net positive. Summing up the +1's and 0's and -1's gives a positive number.
  *   Net negative. Summing up the +1's and 0's and -1's gives a negative number.
All of these would have a net sum of votes shown. It would give us a rough idea of where we have consensus or near-consensus, and where we have very little consensus.

I can spend some time this weekend working on it for next week's call.
