Re: [802SEC] MyBallot and MyProject improvements



For ballot administrator, there is no way to get the affiliations of the
ballot group while the pool is being formed.  You used to, but that
functionality seems to have been taken out.

You used to be able to see and sort on when someone changed their vote, but
you no longer can.

The only way currently within the system for a balloter to indicate that
they are satisfied with the resolutions to their comments is to change their
vote to "approve".  Having some way for the balloter to mark comments that
they are satisfied with the resolution to would be really handy.
