The EG Web Team identified the need for a "feature percolator" – an online collaborative space where Evergreen community members can brainstorm new features, discuss how and why those features should be implemented, indicate their support (with time, money, or interest) for the new feature, and eventually move the feature into Launchpad or a similar development management tool.
One popular open source community idea software is called IdeaTorrent. SITKA provides a collaborative implementation of IdeaTorrent so that their members can contribute, clarify, and prioritize ideas for new features to be developed for Evergreen software. Take a look at the FAQ for their users to understand how they successfully use IdeaTorrent in the SITKA community: https://ideas.sitka.bclibraries.ca/node/1
The administrators at SITKA were kind enough to provide a demonstration implementation of IdeaTorrent on a virtual server for review by the Evergreen Web Team and any other community members interested in checking it out: https://eg-ideas.sitka.bclibraries.ca/
Because of some limitations of flexibility and support for IdeaTorrent, the Website Team is also investigating other solutions such as a custom app on RSCEL or using Launchpad's Blueprints feature.
