My mind just can't wrap itself around the Novell way of artificially distinguishing betweeen bugs and features, or following two trackers for what amounts to one purpose, with separate databases for both. I know of no other open source project where this is done - enhancement requests are sensibly kept right alongside known brokenness in the bug trackers for the YaST-less Mandriva, Mozilla, Fedora, KDE, Xfree, Kernel, *buntu, etc.
The kernel does not use bugzilla for features, it almost doesn't use bugzilla at all even for bugs. bugzilla does not work well for features at all. It can not track them across different products, can not handle threaded responses, and can not handle the different roles that people play when involved in the feature review and acceptance process. That is why FATE was created and why it is used, it is so much better than bugzilla for this task. bugzilla just does not work well for feature requests. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-factory+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-factory+help@opensuse.org
