Want to make something nice to help with bugzilla? How about a page |
| 26 |
with some good queries already setup for different things that would be |
| 27 |
common. Say something like searching for all bugs that are NEW that |
| 28 |
have EBUILD in the KEYWORDS? How about all bugs that have been |
| 29 |
REOPENED? All bugs that have been RESOLVED-TESTREQUEST? |
| 30 |
|
| 31 |
I think these pre-built queries would be much better than yet another |
| 32 |
page to find bugs. |
