We are trying hard to make Discuto better and with your help we have done so already but your feedback is essential in this endeavor. Over the past months we have been discussing ongoing work and new features with you personally or on “Discuss Discuto”. Thank you very much for your input!

Based on our conversation with you, we created a a list of new feature that we might implement. Please help us make the right decisions by voting and commenting on these suggestions.
