This is verging on that oft requested thing that Gentoo could do with, |
| 32 |
a sort of task queue for regular and repeated tasks that can be |
| 33 |
described in one line and aren't worthy of a full bug. |
| 34 |
|
| 35 |
ie: Version Bumps, stabilisation requests, generic repeated |
| 36 |
transformations ( ie: make the metadata better, etc ) |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
Things that if they really needed a full blown bug could be |
| 39 |
cross-linked with bugzilla, but wouldn't need be the default option. |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
Though, thats really an entirely different discussion, I'm just |
| 42 |
teasing the subject so ideas brew and the discussion eventually turns |
| 43 |
up. |
