Hello, everyone. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
Here's my second RFC wrt bugs.gentoo.org redesign. |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
Right now we have separate UNCONFIRMED and CONFIRMED states for bugs. |
| 6 |
However, we use the two scarcely. I believe it would be beneficial to |
| 7 |
replace the two with a single NEW state. |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Rationale: |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
1. Most of developers don't care about the two states, and which one |
| 12 |
bugs are in. |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
2. All bugs need to be handled the same, whether they were marked as |
| 15 |
confirmed or not. |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
3. We stage bugs through bug-wranglers@ which kinda has a similar |
| 18 |
purpose to the UNCONFIRMED state in other Bugzillas. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
4. Some people who actually care about the two states change them, |
| 21 |
causing unnecessary bugspam. |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
5. Some users who think that the state matters get furious about bugs |
| 24 |
staying in UNCONFIRMED for long. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
Your thoughts? |
