[Synaptic-devel] Suggestion

[Joseph Massimino]

Allow users to give one to five stars on apps that they think are great,
and work well, then show how many people gave it each group of stars, so
somone who is looking for good software, does not have to install and test
everything he ,or she finds.

This happens with Ubuntu software centre and I think other distros,
just wondered if there is a way to collate this so there is a central
database / repository of this information that all the various package
managers can tap in to.

It may make it easier to create real statistical data (I am not an
expert here) but having 100 users giving rating is great, having data
from 1000 + users is even better. Either that perhaps a way for the
data to be shared, (just the star ratings) so that someone can analyse
the data.
