No reason that I'm aware of why it was turned off. That said, I'm |
| 6 |
generally leery of enabling technology for technology's sake. So far, I |
| 7 |
haven't seen any indication of how this would be useful. Folks have said |
| 8 |
devs are free to use it or ignore it as they see fit. That doesn't seem |
| 9 |
(to me) like it's going to provide any sort of valuable, useful feedback to |
| 10 |
the team or the community beyond what we already get with CC lists. |

Plus, as someone else noted, our users are not exactly famous for being |
| 13 |
able to use bugzilla correctly in its current form (to be fair, most of the |
| 14 |
blame for this falls on bugzilla, which has a horrid UI imo). |

Basically, if the argument is, "well...it's there. Why *not* turn it on?" |
| 17 |
then I don't see that as being particularly compelling. It sounds like a |
| 18 |
solution in search of a problem. |
