Not exactly... somone (up until the last time, Kern counted) counts the votes, and the results are then manually posted to the web page.

To clarify things a bit: Currently, I only plan to manage the feature requests and the voting process. For that purpose, I'm looking for a solution to collect and present feature requests, preferrably in the format they are in now (i.e. Description, detailed notes, status and people working on it). The voting functionality should be included, so that, for each voting period, any (registered) user can vote for a number of features, can assign weights to the votes, and the solution adds the votes up correctly. I'm not too eager to install a complete CMS plus add-ons, or bugzilla, or something similarly oversized. As of now, I don't see an out-of-the box solution, and I think that creating a tailored voting solution would not be unrealistic, but I'm still open for suggestions.
