Wishlist to reality

[pr3]

We all fairly recently saw some life in the Wishlist process. There was a big "spring cleanup" this year.
The Wishlist is now filled with 10 pages of wishes but all I see is "open" and "upvoted" wishes. There is not a single wish that is being "under consideration" or "on the roadmap"

The same applies to the German "Wunschliste" btw.

What exactly - if anything - is Graphisoft doing with these Wishlists?

Hi pr3,

I can tell you that our product managers are looking into this, however since it is a quite a load of wishes it is a time consuming task. Also, they want to make sure that the clean-up wishes are considered thoroughly. It is not an easy task as it requires several people to contribute, who have their own projects / responsibilities to take care of in parallel. Admittedly it is a bit slower than I have expected but I will make sure that the process will be a steady progress and we will get through all of them.

I'm sorry but this response sure makes you wonder. So you finally launch a wish/idea functionality some 3 years after work allegedly began with the goal of  "a feature that will help us process your wishes and ideas in much better way with a proper feedback". During those 3 years you have pointed to several obstacles for implementation, both organisational and technical, which we now have to assumed has been overcome. In addition to that you had a 2 month spring clean for which most of the time it was obvious which 50 or so would make it through and now you have had 3 months since the launch of the new wishlist. All this we still haven't gotten feedback on a single wish which tells me that something that almost every other software developer manage to deliver is too hard for GS or that it simply isn't more than a retention/marketing operation and prioritised accordingly....

Let me check back in a few months time to see if you start to listen to feedback from the frontlines and give at least one wish a "under consideration".

I set a kind low bar here.

I also noticed that a lot of very needed wishes disappeared,  like new window door tool, ceiling tool, revamped wall tool, etc

Maybe there's only the intern in the back office working on this... You have also got to wonder what happened to the internal Wishlist, might have gotten lost under the heap of papers.
