Suggestion: sort "highest rated" products by likes - dislikes, instead of just by likes

Description

It appears that PSC is now sorting the "highest rated" products by simply looking at the number of "likes." This is not bad, but in the long run, it may be smartest to compute a "net_likes" parameter by subtracting dislikes from likes, then using that as the sort index.

Good idea. I don't know that it will make that much difference but I'll put it on my tick list.

I see likes/dislikes as more of a secondary signal now that we have the ability to show top downloads from PyPI instead. Should we make the Products section sort by that instead, since it shows the actual popularity of things instead of who went back and clicked a like/dislike link?

I think the end game here will be the featured products page, which Mark indicated will be ready to select in a week or so. I assume that will be the default sort.

btw - we still have code that allows us to select featured products. I guess this is a PING to the people who talk about that stuff to get the ball rolling
