I'm not sure what (if anything) governs voting rights on the issues,
but in any case we don't really use the votes in prioritizing. We
tend to rely on posts to this list a lot more.

I could write a monograph on the pitfalls of voting, self-selecting
electorates, and the difficulties of weighing different people's
prioritizations of different issues... But merely saying that I could
write it might be enough to make clear what it would say if I did :-).

Glad to hear it!

Which docs did you see? Running 'svn help checkout', for example,
doesn't indicate that --verbose would be supported.
