Comment 13 for bug 557432

Tom and I have worked on ideas for bug heat calculation for the last few days and talked about it among bugs team developers, and we've got plans together now to add points for activity and also more rapidly fade heat on inactive bugs. The hope is that these changes will make currently hot bugs even hotter and inactive bugs colder and that this change will be enough to cause the hot bugs list to be useful on more projects.

We're trying to get this landed over the next day or two, so that the change has as much time as possible on edge and staging before the 10.04 rollout to see if the changes do actually prove useful.
