Feature changed by: Adrian Schröter (adrianSuSE) Feature #305905, revision 4 Title: Package and Project Marking Buildservice: Evaluation Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Will Stephenson (wstephenson) Description: * Add the ability to have a 'status update' on packages AND projects * * status updates are not package changelogs; logs refer to changes to the contents of the package, status updates relate to ongoing work on the packages * * 1:N relationship, status updates are timestamped. Like facebook or $microblogging service. * show current status on checkout or list * Add a command to read all the status updates on a package. Examples: 1) Jack is updating Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory to 23.2 and disables publish on the whole project before the actual release date with the status message '20090224 - disabled publish pending 23.2 release' 2) Jill is triaging breakages in Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory and marks packages without checking them out before assigning work to team members Denise and Paula, with "osc mark -m 'broken by input.device changes' Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory Preferences" 3) Paula is fixing a breakage in Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory Preferences and locks (see #305899) the package with status update using "osc co -l -m '20090225 - fixing build failure due to input. device changes' Commodore:Amiga:Workbench:Factory Preferences" + Discussion: + #1: Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) (2010-02-20 10:38:29) + I see two areas here: + * log changes in a classifiable way + (http://en.opensuse.org/Build_Service/Concepts/Changelog) + * Integration with external systems like twitter and social web sites. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/305905
