I'm taking forever to find anything in JIRA.
Please post some links here with a short description for all the important issues that need votes so myself and other JIRA invalids can vote for them if they seem what we want, rather than making new ones up meaning the same thing or remaining oblivious, it's silly some major ly good features that many ask for only have 15 votes :)
If we can keep the chaff out this might even make a good sticky, Ediot (Edit badly spelt)- Maybe not for reasons below :)
Sorry, no pie here :)

I think the point of the JIRA voting is that you vote for things that matter to you. For example, I've voted to get the group=(???) bug fixed because it affects my group-owned land, and I've voted to have the windlight defaults for underwater fog density lowered to more closely match the current client because I live underwater. But that doesn't mean these things matter to anyone else.

I'm sure some others here can give you some more universally relevant JIRAs. I would also suggest you do a forum search on "JIRA", as we often post links to JIRAs when discussing a particular bug or problem.

And I vote against making this thread a sticky, because (a) we've got too many stickies, so many that most are just ignored, and (b) the subject matter is too temporary... JIRAs get fixed or closed, so the important ones will always be changing over time.

Promote bugs on JIRA
/142/e4/224923/1.html

There are some there :).

(Edited to add that I agree with Ava that you probably shouldn't vote for things you don't want/need, but a quick list that doesn't take 10 minutes of waiting to show can be helpful :))

"What JIRA stuff should we vote for?"

your resident answer is "yes."

seriously, vote for everything you see that makes half a lick of sense, you have one vote per issue, and so many people get turned off by jira or annoyed with it, that they don't bother (or like me forget)...

so seriously if it was important enough to read about, vote on it, unless there's some obvious reason not to. (yes it's annoying that you don't stay logged in automatically)

here's one..
https://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-998

What sort of stuff are you interested in? As Kitty already pointed out there is one for bugs, a few general ones I might add are:

Improve Performance! A meta-issue requesting improved in-world performance, with links to a number of performance improving features:
http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/VWR-864

Improved in-world privacy. A meta-issue requesting that in-world privacy be improved, with links to features aimed at improving privacy options:
http://jira.secondlife.com/browse/SVC-241

If either of those two topics interest you then they ought to occupy you for a bit as they both have some great proposals attached =)

In addition to the obvious LSL bugs and limitations that crop up on Scripting Tips, I generally just vote for any hare-brained scheme to eliminate adfarms (easy to find with a Jira search). I'm pretty sure I know how this will get solved technically (and it'll bring a lot of "privacy" along with it), but I want to push as hard as possible to make it happen sooner.
