"vote" is a little weird... Everything about this is pretty intuitive except for that. It's only mentioned once on the summary/info page and in the welcome board after signup there should be a card that explains what voting is supposed to be, exactly. (besides just the ubiquitous like equivalent)
I get the impression this started out with "voting" more prominent than it is now.
But otherwise, this is really pretty neat. One of the first hosted solutions I've been interested in since I got tired of basecamp.
Voting is actually a kind of "test of concept" of the idea of Trello Plugins which enhance Trello boards in interesting ways that not everyone necessarily uses
Edit You CAN disable voting by going to Preferences under the main board menu.
(Disregard the following.)
Currently, no, because it's kind of a half plugin.
You can ignore it, though, nothing really changes if someone happens to vote on something. But internally, we've already found it quite useful for things like helping decide a name of a new project and voting on features.
Its cool that you can have a public board with public comments. But it would be even cooler to have a finer grained control over who can do what. i.e. have a board with some of the lists public read-only, others private, others read-write so anyone can edit, and public append-only, for things like bug reports etc.
since there is not feedback link I could find, I'll keep it here ;) :
- color labels are nice, but real text tags would be good too. lists are not enough. having a 'bugs' list doesn't help as soon as the bug moves to 'under work'
