We’ve been talking about lots of new features / initiatives for a while now at Quirky, and while there is progress being made on all fronts- we have been hearing that you (the community) are feeling as though we are slow to deliver on iterations on the platform.
Quirky’s technology team is one of the smallest departments here at Quirky. This is something we are working hard on changing (by recruiting great developers)- but for now, it’s sort of a fact of life.
So we’re asking for your help. We’ve compiled a list of all of the changes/initiatives we have AGREED on taking on, and we are asking for your help prioritizing them.
We’re going to provide complete visibility into our technology pipeline- things that have recently been completed, thing in progress, and then a running queue (which you can affect the order of) as to what’s coming next
Today we’re launching quirky.com/next. We hope you’ll help us help you and make quirky a better and more productive place.
Did we miss something? Get in touch with us, and if accepted we’ll add it to the queue for voting.

It seems that the top two (“New Eval System” and “Re-Write Influence Engine to better capture activities (preference to veterans, inventors, etc)”) could be combined together, since so much of the influence is awarded during evaluations, and the reasons for awarding influence can shape the evaluation system.
