I understand that @endless-sky doesn't want to include many of the suggested improvements just because he don't feel that they take the game in a direction he wants to go. However, I do think that part of this might just be not knowing whether a given proposed PR is desired by the community, especially given that there are only a few interested people commenting on any particular PR.\r\n\r\nIt's a shame that Github doesn't seem to have any sort of democratic process for pull requests, but I was wondering if perhaps there was a third-party solution for this. Perhaps for instance polls could be posted to Steam's community forums for feedback on any particular PR, if it's the case that @endless-sky is on the fence about a particular PR. I'm not sure on what the best solution is here, but it would be nice to have more community feedback. What do you all think?"}}
