"There is no formal ranking system as far as I’m aware. New features/development by libraries/vendors are proposed to the Steering Committee, who decides if it is a good idea to include in the code-base." /Community-member /MWi

The project used Zenhub in the past, but now Michelle Futorick is recommending a tool called Miro.  From MIchelle in an email: "Miro can integrate with Jira for tickets that need prioritization.  Or you can do freeform with "stickies" and lots of ways of grouping and voting and commenting/reacting to things." --jsamples

Idea Exchange is the branded name, but I don't know what system is used – jsamples

Ideas Exchange is advisory. Uses points that the institution can re-distribute when they want. FAQ /MWi

We had no input into prioritization; support not good

If understood correctly; Suggestions are entered by interested institution in BugZilla. There is an "upvote" function, but no real ranking/voting used. Development is mostly made/financed by the institution(s) that need a feature. The code is then admitted to general Koha release if QA-team agrees (here open voting may occur)./MWi
