More data.  Looking at all votes placed (regardless of bug status):

| numvotes | numvoters |
+----------+-----------+
|        1 |        62 |
|        2 |        30 |
|        3 |        14 |
|        4 |        10 |
|        5 |         9 |
|        6 |         4 |
|        7 |         8 |
|        8 |         5 |
|        9 |        10 |
|       10 |        40 |

total numvoters: 192 (of 863 users, so 22%)

I find this data interesting.  An awful lot of people (79% of the people 
who vote, or 95% of the total reporting population) aren't using all the 
votes they're currently given.

There are 3145 bugs that are marked resolved or closed, 90 of which have 
had at least one vote.  Break down of number of votes per bug for the 
resolved bugs.

| numvotes | numbugs |
+----------+---------+
|       11 |       1 |
|        7 |       1 |
|        6 |       2 |
|        5 |       6 |
|        3 |       3 |
|        2 |      13 |
|        1 |      64 |

Anyone else have any other statistical data they'd like pulled from the 
db?

I've gone ahead and increased the number of allowed votes to 100 with up 
to 10 votes for each issue.  I'm tired of debating it and it's really not 
that important to me.

Later,
Brad
